White angel of death cloud

For some reason, this particular pollution looks white. I went up to the roof and I can't make out the mitsukoshi building through the poison air, even on the 16th floor. It's only two stations away. Even the normally twinkling hillside by yuanshan park is almost completely lost in the cloud of death. It's a big change from yilan, where we spent the weekend, in blindingly bright sunshine and air that doesn't reek of spent hydrocarbons. For the first time, I'm getting fed up with Taipei. Fortunately, rain is scheduled for tomorrow, so maybe I won't have the taste of burning trash in my mouth when I go outside.
