the wall feels like a storybook left open in the middle of a sentence—rust and neon shouting, a billboard like a scratched score. every flicker of light is a breath, every chipped panel a memory of commuters who once paused here. it’s the city’s way of saying, “I was here, I’m still here, and I’ve got layers you’re meant to peel back.” if you smash it, you’ll just turn one chapter into a paint‑splattered page, but you’ll still hear the rusted whisper underneath. the real question is whether you’re ready to listen to that hiss before you paint it loud.
