The sun was pulled downward by an unexplained force, below the horizon, taking with it every living creature, every rock, machine of every size, all things unattached to the sticky surface of visible earth. In a few heartbeats, man-made objects were taken: houses, skyscrapers, and monuments were lifted from their foundations, plunged lightward, peeled and skinned from the soil by knife-wielding hands of the stars. Landforms were scraped clean, waters were twisted through the escaping atmosphere and places where golden-blue lakes once rested were scars of eroded trenches caressed by moonlit shadows. Night blackened at moon fall. Time. Inhale. Then, the sun arose screaming in the opposite direction and the world was freshened in bright yellow. What a day, and you, how was yours?

Leschen writes with his heart on his sleeve, and captures the moment with cynically crafted and surreal references to worldly ways, posturing by the undeserving and aloof in front of a backdrop of Americana. - Andy Bramwell, Waikato Times
