Veiled Skies @ Duck Key
Recent scientific analysis of Greenland has determined that the island is melting more quickly than was previously thought. The scientific analysis tells that the ocean will rise a little over 20 feet. The Keys themselves range from about 8’ to 10’ above current ocean level. Duck Key awaits the unveiling of our hundred miles of beaded ecological gems drowned in our stupidity, and our culture of greed in oil. Yet for a short time the Keys will stand like ancient sentries, their ceremonial headdresses tossed in exotic shapes by still fresh airs, until we attend our losses.
