On Dealey Plaza

In pristine sunshine
         A couple embrace the day   
       Pink mist sends shockwaves

Sorry David forgive me I so to love history its my favorite subject Had to Google Dealey Plaza though This like Falling Angel is 1 of my favorite subject's. I am so inquisitive love to know the why or reason behind it all. Fantastic love it The connection is the beautiful clear blue sunshine day and people going about their day unbeknownst

the images of that day Christopher are so shocking and visceral I decided to just nuance the spectacle with color and light, the pink mist might be vague to some, but bold words would not do the impending tragedy justice cheers David
