Does this work as an abstract?

Thoughts? Anyone guess what the object is?

When I look at this photo, all I can think of are those old Saturday morning cartoon show PSA's from the US Federal Govt's anti-drug program... Remember those commercials? The ones that said in a fatherly voice, "This is your Slinkie. This is your Slinkie on drugs." And then they dropped that poor Slinkie into a vat of hot deep-frying oil. Oh, man, those ads have burned deep into my subconscious.

Is this a coiled air hose?

IMO, it isn't the best abstract.

 

[runnah]

Nope. I wanted to move it but couldn't lift it so thats a hint.

Oo, oh, I know! It's HEAVY! I win!

What did I win?

I don't think it works as an abstract for me. I do want to know what it is though!

Chances are you see them everyday but don't even notice.

It looks like a bunch of machined brake rotors to me.

Insulators on powerlines? This is like the macro Whatzits? Missing those.

I think there's potential there. I might have moved a little to the left and gotten rid of the brighter spots at the top (whether in camera or post) - they don't really have the texture but pull me because they are bright.

Phone cord? Although I haven't seen one of those for...years.
lol nm, I'm hoping you'd be able to lift a phone cord!

Ding ding.

There were dozens laying on the ground in those sets. Suckers weigh a bunch so I couldn't move them.
