The metallic pair face down the scene, a set of heavies strategically posted as racketeers staking out turf (and carriers of old news); perhaps the consequences of crossing them lie at their feet beneath concrete markers. The authoritative fireplug faces away — paid off?
Even the directional sign points to the better idea of skirting this scene stage-left.
Regardless — or simply oblivious — a couple in love (or at least on their way) boldly stride through this territory with confidence and verve, demonstrating the power of their mutual affection, connection and joyful immediacy to carry them through whatever gauntlet awaits.
The power of optimism can thrive even in the grayest times.
