Neon Bleeds
Those who work in the Waikiki resorts, dwell in their shadow.
Neon bleeds down back alleys, following them home,
A bit of artificial glamor to limn the reality
Of minimum wage in the high rent district.

Neon bleeds. A very interesting picture and strange thought.
Cool lights!!!
Walking on those stairs must be like totally rad!!!
It is sad and gaudy, but it is what it is.
I’ll put a table anywhere next to that swing for you to read on, if you want. đŸ™‚ You might want to wait until fall, unless you are allergic to mountain cedar and stuff. I was always so happy when the first cold front of the season came through and would open all the windows and doors until on time I noticed my nose had gotten all stopped up and my chest was sort of tight and you know..I just didn’t feel all that great…then I remembered that it happened about that time every year…then I went to the allergist.
You and OC are welcome here anytime.
Very cool effect! Great shot!!!
I love the lines and angles here. And that green is really striking. Nice job. So you don’t have a project for us for in between Anna’s color projects this time??? Maybe I’ll think something up one of these days.
Dr. John — neon gas is deadly, you know.
JD — I took this shot from my hotel room. Those steps are in an alley neither you nor I would normally chose to walk down even in daylight.
Amber — as you are welcome here — though unlike you I don’t have a fancy guest room. We’ll put you on the airbed in the spare room, and the ironing board and sewing machine can go put away for a change.
Karen — thank you.
Robert — my project is job hunting. Have to get off this couch and get busy!
Great picture and even better poem. I really liked the poem you left as a comment. Thank you.
that is a great shot in difficult lighting conditions.
the words correspond with the mood very well(love ‘neon bleeds’)
That is a brilliant shot in difficult light. You have captured the colour of the neon perfectly. The gloominess of the stairs is obvious.
Loved the words with it too.
Cath — Thank you. I was peased this shot came out so well.
