Oxidized Cadence
Oxidized copper scrapes against raw skin, a jagged friction born where mechanical intent meets biological decay. Each rhythmic click of the rusted gear vibrates through the calcified ribcage, tracing paths that follow deep into the marrow. These layers of grit and bone merge until the distinction between machine and anatomy dissolves entirely. In this slow grinding, a quiet alignment emerges as the body finally accepts its role within the heavy architecture of time.
