An archive holds fragments of toppled statues. Inside, the air from a fan caresses the archivists’ stalled gestures as they rest, unmoving. The hum of the motor and the drawn-out wait induce sleep:

In a dream, soldiers and civilians smile, motionless.
(Faraway shots, bullets whistling and explosions).

In another dream, there are just stones, indifference and oblivion.
(None of the above is real or true).
