Prosaic Graffiti

Walking south on Milwaukee ave between california and damen this evening, I saw a few words spraypainted onto the sidewalk intermittently. I noticed a similar technique used on N.Clark st between irving park and montrose. As the sentance was flowing in the direction opposite mine, I decided to record the words in reverse and here is the result:

HERE YOU ARE. AS YOU LOOK AWAY, YOUR GOD BECOMES CONCRETE, A WAVE, A PERPETUAL TINY GRID, COLORLESS. ITS INEVITABLE CORNERS, A MAP THAT THROWS YOU BACK, BLANK WINDOWS EVERYWHERE, A SCREEN THAT REVEALS EVERYTHING.

Quite the esoteric use of sidewalk.
