On Trash, Walking By, Sitting Down

Hi all-

This was taken outside of an antique store which closed before I ever went in. Here, outside the store, is an antique-looking thing just relaxing on the sidewalk. It has almost become a chair here, inving me to sit down, but I was busy that day, like most days, and didn't see it at the time. That I should just chill. Take it a bit easier. Stop seeing trash as trash, and realize that the antiques inside the store with price tags and the antiques outside the store are really the same thing. What you pay for is the promise that what's old isn't trash. What's free is the perspective to not need the price tag to tell you that.
