not a city

eptx is not a city
it is a collection of single-family homes, low to the ground, close to one another,
surrounded by fences, with two or three or more large trucks parked in front,
and a couple of dogs yapping

a city requires a certain minimum of sociality, a minimum of civilization
--such as public transport, and public places--things lacking in eptx....

gmooh

eptx is a footnote to the military outpost on the frontier of a destructive empire,
a sort of holding station, where the empire ends, and the dominated neigboring regions begin...

....on the outskirts of empire.....

....choking in sand....
