weekend warriors, chicago runners, chicago living, city living, through empty financial districts, stores and restaurants closed, a city quiet, serene, calm, no hustle and bustle, deserted, empty, building canyons, streets cutting deep, narrow paths among the skyscrapers, and the explorers, the ones who venture in on the weekends, that have things to do, stuff to see, work to get done, canyoning, and caught, in the uptick, the shifting sense of time, framed by consistency, shrouded by doubt, but bought, wholesale, in the mind.
