American Wasteland by Whitney Tai
You see the scale of yourself, a speckle in a barren, burning wasteland. You float at the surface of the water feeling nothing, mouth ajar, lump in your throat, aches in your joints, silent cringing in your glowing ribs. You fight to breathe, cold and damp with so much towering over you. No matter how much this experience has changed you, your mind still craves the sensation of triumph and peace. To attain the stoic comfort of the Sequoias. The patient pull of Saturns moon. You are aware this brief spark will be jubilant. Where the slumber numbs and paralyzes you no more. That somehow, this one fractional realization of the moment, means more than any of the catastrophic ones preceding it. As the hope wells up in you like the contaminated waters around you, this capsule of love takes care of what refuses to care for itself. You yourself were the perfect storm, a soldier of magnificent power, a portal into the future of change.
