Shady Shades of Ghosts- 6WS

Shady shades of, ghosts?

SIX WORD SATURDAY

Welcome to downtown Northfield, Minnesota.

SOME STRANGE ART 

AT PLAY HERE

"Modern art is what happens when painters stop looking at girls and persuade themselves that they have a better idea." - John Ciardi

"A good question is never answered.  

It is not a bolt to be tightened into place 

but a seed to be planted 

and to bear more seed toward the hope 

of greening the landscape of idea." - John Ciardi

ART is much like that.

"My face looks like a wedding cake left out in the rain." -  W. H. Auden

(In fact my entire body looks that way.)

IT'S THAT TIME OF YEAR AGAIN

WINDOW DESIGNS-

takes on an entire new meaning to art don't you think?

What is that strange, almost human like creature hosting an eerie sense of fashion; as if, desperation got the better of him?  Seriously Mr. Pumpkin Man you had to wear football gear? 

Obviously, Mr. Skeleton Man is glaring sightlessly back at us with the most peculiar over sized glove any skeleton would ever dream of wearing.

What did the skeleton say when his brother told a lie?  "You can't fool me, I can see right through you."

Don't be fooled by his toothy smile.  He's hardly a scary or fearsome creature doomed to rest upon a stool behind glass in a store that hasn't even opened yet. Notable for his bony stature, perhaps a bit unpredictable in nature and yet, his days ended long ago.  He doesn't scare me.

BUT THEY HAVE GRABBED PEOPLE'S ATTENTION

A closer look at Mr. Pumpkin Man reveals-

"Men are like pumpkins.  It seems like all the good ones are either taken or you just can't make up your mind as to which one you should take home."

Do you think this passerby was impressed or viewed the window scene sardonically?

What do you see on closer inspection little munchkin?
