invisible



As I turn down yet another road that I've never traveled along before, on this tiny & incredibly wealthy island where I grew up, I am shocked by the neighbourhood that stands before me. Never mind that I'm shocked at what I see. I'm shocked and horrified that all this stands in plain sight, yet so well hidden. Just off the main road. Just behind a new apartment development. Just behind a business. Just behind a wall. Just behind some greenery. Just somewhere over there, hidden well enough to go largely unnoticed. Invisible.
