A seemingly endless pacific sunset. buckets of golden light pour through distant clouds. birds flutter off towards the horizon, earth still pulsating with the energy of the afternoon sun. an old man combs the sand with a rake. inside his boombox, the last few shreds of machinery grind on. sweet, joyful sounds emanate from the speaker grille. music finds its way to a pair of young lovers nearby. trying to make the moment last just a little longer, they cling to each other and whisper.
