Seeing 2012 (#87)

For your consideration:  an image posted while on Lithium . . . (such was the Nirvana tune playing on Pandora radio as I created this offering).

Hmm.  The surrealist aspect of this arid composition, with its wired sculpture of impenetrable import, does seen rather like a notion conjured up during some ingestion of chemical influence.  As I scanned the original scene I was at a loss to explain its purpose.  Not quite a modern Stonehenge,  yet who knows what high desert heat can do to a restless mind.

Perhaps visiting archeologists centuries hence will divine a plausible theory as to its meaning.

Doubtful, that, but it was a fun discovery nonetheless (and, I must admit, a quintessentially Arizonan one), regardless of its opaque message and function.
