Wikipedia Context

In Greek mythology, Styx, also called the River Styx, is a goddess and one of the rivers of the Greek Underworld. Her parents were the Titans Oceanus and Tethys, and she was the wife of the Titan Pallas and the mother of Zelus, Nike, Kratos, and Bia. She sided with Zeus in his war against the Titans, and because of this, to honor her, Zeus decreed that the solemn oaths of the gods be sworn by the water of Styx.

Description

Along Metro Manila flows EDSA, the concrete river which ponctuates the life of all. No one escapes from its grip, EDSA regulates the time, devours the youth and accelerates downfalls. It is a hated river, the receptacle of all the pains and the kingdom of resignations. A modern Styx which transports every day a flow of miserables in the noise of engines.

Faces are gaunt, paralyzed of fatigue. Bodies are piled up in wire cages, saturated by the condensation of the exhausted breathings. The crowd walks against the current along the mechanical hell. It looks for its stop, it looks for its starting point.
