NEON TRUTH

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
beneath cold neon,  
truth whispers in shattered glass~  
dawn licks its wounds clean

We do hide, somewhat, in the night life. If one can call it that...sunlight may be the best purifier...but it is not always the most compassionate. God seemed to have allowed for both. A lot to glean from your little write. A lot of wisdom.
