Temporal Impermanence
The River Thames once used to freeze over,
the flowing waterway would become an icy expanse.
A playing field for the energetic child with a ball, a market area for the keen seller,
a new road for the carriage.
It became another level, another floor of human interaction within the city.
The drawing expresses this sense of levels of activity,
but also of timeline as the river only froze over because of the old London Bridge
and it was only during this time that it froze in the harsh winters.
