The sun beat upon the black canvas of the road, each car a tiny scar etching its way across the surface. Miles stretched out like a ribbon of tar, shimmering in the heat haze. Vehicles roared past, spitting fumes that hung heavy in the air. The asphalt itself seemed to groan under the weight, its previous shiny surface now a patchwork of fractures. A lone tumbleweed rolled by, a testament to the harshness of this landscape.
- Still the sun beat down, life found here. A coyote howled in the distance, its mournful cry echoing across the desolate plain. A lizard darted between the cracks, seeking a sliver of shade.
- This road was more than just asphalt; it was a story, a testament to the resilience of life even in the face of harshness.

Whispers from the Windshield Wipers
As this automobile rumbled down the winding road, a strange sound arose from behind the windshield wipers. It was a gentle whisper, almost like faint voices. At first, I dismissed it, thinking it was just the noise of the engine. But as the sound intensified, a sense of fear began to creep in.

- Or could there be something more?

Perhaps? That this was their fate – a life lived in the constant struggle, forever bound by the chains of diesel smoke.
