We have stopped celebrating the achievements of the West, we concentrate only on its abuses and failures.
Even these will be forgotten within another generation.
A new empire will eclipse the old - replace the relic, the tourist attraction of reconstructed memory not its own - and crumbling architecture where once proud citizens engaged in their future.
The Internet will be purged of the past to make space for the present, and our ghosts and shadows will be lost within the resonance at Avesbury, at Carnac, as myth blends to become a single forgotten legend.
