I breathe in. Sunlight streams through the canopy, releasing the dew of the evening into the air of dawn. Morning fog collides with stacked limestone. I take another breath.
Howler monkey calls echo in entropy as I sprint up the steps on all fours. Climb. Climb. Climb. One chance to do the jungle justice. A quick slip and the scrape of a knee. Get back up.
I reach the top and release my camera into the sky.
The growth of the forest swallows the ruins. A civilization reclaimed by nature. Could our cities meet the same fortune? One day.
