都市では無い

高架のための立ち退きで出現した延々と続く更地はいつか埋まってしまうが、晴れの日は遮るものがないのでその明るさに翻弄され暗闇に入ると何も見えなくなる。都市だから生まれた明るさは都市だからやがて無くなる。

このままで何もない方が、見慣れた風景にもなったので、良いのではないかと勝手に思ってしまうが、それは許されない。都市では何も無い状態は許されない。何も無い状態は都市では無い。

"Not a city"

The endless vacant lot that appeared due to the eviction for the overpass will be filled up someday, but since there is nothing to block on a sunny day, nothing can be seen when entering the darkness at the mercy of its brightness. The brightness that was born because it is a city will soon disappear because it is a city.

It would be nice to have nothing as it is, because it would be a familiar landscape, but that is not allowed. Nothing is allowed in the city. An empty state is not a city.
