Description

"Double Troubles' is magic realist still action gas station, this piece dwells within a wee recession struck Michigan town. Juxtaposition, a few blocks from a nuclear reactor, soul-less; evoking emotional fall-out, tattered, ragged, flamingo pink egos, dusting grey skies with cloudy bombed-out unknowns.

The surreal memory piece, "Double Troubles", contains thoughts know and not know, distant but close, adoring the nuclear reactor, an abandoned lover, crying blankly to the skies.

Two cars one on the far left and one on the far right move toward each other, ("Double Troubles"), frozen below grey blue color skies, as dark green vines breathe in and out, so slowly, the human eye cannot see it.

A flamingo pink, turquoise, blue vacant metal gas station is still, as the magic realism scene exists in
nano-split life seconds.
