Retrospective in Occupied

DDH 62: Empty spaces and forgetful faces

Mounds of street press are finally taken to. Fifty two weeks taken in folds and their numbers faintly stain the fingertips with newsprint and ink. Warm pungency of an archival nature waft from their crispy fibres. Copies of The Brag, Drum Media, Last, CityHub, 3D World, SX News and Sydney Star Observer finding a tight squeeze into the recycling boxes. CityWeekly and 9TO5 (still in their plastic) sitting and waiting for their turn after the nightly disposal.

Pamphlets and flyers are all over the place and looking to make themselves noteworthy enough to be taken on the train rides home. Few make it, the rest diving into the boxes ready to enjoy a reincarnation as broken leaves.

Final team meeting graces are so quickly forgotten and the chance to say thanks is lost.

Holes emerge clearer now in various locations on the floor. October sees an exodus of sorts, the personnel stepping out and away one and two by a day's end of the week.
