Women's History Month: Alison Ross aka Clockwise Cat's "The Cubic Aftermath"



The cubic aftermath: calculate the emotional scars of the tallest buildings, and divide the sum by the abstract reasoning of the lushest trees. Multiply by the fractured geometry of the most toxic pollutants, and then send the backwards butterflies swarming into the swamp that’s just west of your mind. 

Disassemble the skyscrapers, and inhale the clouds.
