Monument Valley, 2050
East Mitten: The crowds have left.
West Mitten: They won’t be back.
East Mitten: Seems darker now.
West Mitten: I see more stars.
East Mitten: It’s quiet too.
West Mitten: The hum is gone.
East Mitten: The dust has settled.
West Mitten: For good, it seems.
East Mitten: They’re really gone?
West Mitten: They are no more.
East Mitten: Just you and me?
West Mitten: Back to eternity
