Driving in Tokyo One Night


Sitting in a car, wrapped in aluminum and plastic and glass, on an elevated highway that itself sits below yet another highway, the middle slice of a sandwich of concrete and asphalt, canyoned on either side by monolith office towers of steel and glass, vacant floors awash in incandescent light.

Little driver of flesh and bone, warm and dry despite the evening rain. Shielded, swaddled. Cocooned.
