Love and light

Hey Ron!

Why thank you for your snaps.

Thanks for stopping by amigo:)

Hahaha.
Dude - it doesn't stay in Vegas.
It follows people home.
Friends of ours just recently went to Vegas and got married.
It was awesome and spontaneous!!
They have been together for a few years - bought a house together - raising kids together - why not. Just go for it!!

I was looking at the darker side of it  with this write.
My friend worked in a few casinos and not so pretty.
Gotta be hard for people with gambling problems - chasing that
fortune for fame. Thinking of the underbelly of the whole thing.

Thanks for checking this out buddy:)

Gotta be honest - it is on my bucket list. hahah

I want to catch some magic shows - maybe even a couple of
drag shows. Try some good food - check out all of the lights.
ganna be awesome!!!

Dude -  that naked girl might
be me after a couple of drinks!!  hahahah  jk

My husband would have a heart attack. LOL

A good drag show brunch at Senor Frogs lol

Hahahah.

Will check out!!

You have a way with the dark side which counters your mostly upbeat tone.   It's hard to resist sometimes,  those stories need to get told....

BIG LIKE

Hey PS

Yes - I have a dark side.
Pull up a chair and enjoy the show amigo.
hahahah

Just came to me in flashes. Had to write down.
Got that pagan spark.  I do love a good dark poem.
I think that is why we are super cool PS:)

Thanks for the RL and comment

Go down to Fremont Street at night and you'll get your fill of lost dreamers...I don't think I could live there tho but not a bad visit if you know what you're there for

My friend recommended The Golden Nugget?
Never been and excited to go. Hopefully sometime this year.
My cousin also moved there so I have somewhere
to stay as well.
Will check out!!

Thanks Tim:)

That's on Fremont..A little less expensive and gives an old school Vegas vibe

Great - Don't they also have a mob museum.
Wanta check that out as well.

Thanks for the snaps amigo

They do but I haven't made it there yet...thinking of going back in Aug as they offered me comped rooms with free slot play

Well damn high roller!!  hahaha

Fixing to log off
have a great evening amigo!!

There was something about come worship at my altar, and it fits this piece. Very few fans of westerns realize that Miss Kitty on the tv western "Gunsmoke" was also a Madame. They should really watch a tv series called "Deadwoods" for an actual view in a lot of ways. This is tight work you incorporated a little darkness with temptation city  

Hey Mister:)

Thank you for your snaps!!!
In a way I also think of Casinos as Pagans as well.
Being seduces by the lights and promise of fortune if
your lucky enough.
I have watched Gunsmoke - and it is
only fitting that she is called Miss Kitty - and also a Madame. LOL
Freaking awesome:)

So glad you enjoyed:)

good evening beautiful Adelphina I've never been to Vegas
but I can relate to the trading of pieces of your soul for something
this is excellent lady ❤️

Hi Crimsin;)

I have not either - but that will hopefully change:)
When I think of Vegas I think of all the pretty lights
and showgirls, magic shows, all that kind of stuff. I had
a friend move in and she said it is great but there is also a  
flip side to it. Not so pretty. Just thought about it and started  
writing when I saw the title Pagans in Vegas. Just kinda  
got stuck by flashes of the dark side.  

Thanks for checking this out amiga
Your work inspired me as well:)

Night Night

Vicious.

Characteristic cool,
to your turns of phrase...

Vibrant imagery.

Spectacular closing.

Hey Cipher!

Thanks for your snaps buddy:)

Dear A,

The lure of Vegas…the painting of a city and lifestyle that you either love or hate. I’ve never encountered anyone in the middle of the road after visiting this mecca. For me, in this write I saw an alternate universe of souls trying to hit it big and hard for things they thought they wanted, got them and paid a very dear price in the end. Excellent journey and really wonderful poetic phrases:
“ Nightlight naked dreams
Painted in blood dresses”
“ There are no vegans
only Pagans in Vegas”
Make no mistake the entire poem is magic but grabbing at lines…those are just a couple of examples I’d roll the dice on 😉
H🌷

Hi H!!

Honestly, I kinda love all that glam and shine of Vegas.
Glad I don't live there though- not sure where I'd end up. LOL
I do love the arrangement you made of those lines!!

My husband loves to gamble - he won 1500 once
at Kickapoo Casino!! Was exciting for a minute but I held
on to the money so he wouldn't blow it all. He got an allowance
of 100 and I kept the rest. We left right after he lost the 100. LOL

Thanks for stopping by for a comment amiga:)

I was going to ask you if you lived there. Because you pegged it so well.  -You have the skill to go there without being there.  Your eyes are birds.  

Great descriptive scenes, well crafted.  Awesome write Amiga!

Hey Styx!!

So glad you enjoyed.
Eyes like birds - that is a poem amigo. LOL
Freaking awesome!!!!

I do want to go. Hopefully sometime this year.

Just imagined it in my head - went dark though.

Also watched the movie Casino
with Sharon Stone a zillion times. Love that movie!!!

Thanks for the RL and comment amigo:)

nice to read your words
as always you show your gift.
noting worldly details in such a descriptive way.

thank you for sharing

Well howdy Mystic:)

So nice to see you commenting:)
Thank you for the snaps amigo!!
Can't wait til I read some of your stuff.

Hope all is well on your side of the world:)

Really like where this one took me... crisp... tight write dear poetess...

Thanks LilD:)

Glad you enjoyed amiga!

Thanks for stopping by and the RL!!
Woop Woop!!

You give an at a glance picture of the seamier side of Vegas, city where everything goes.

Wouldn't mind working for someone who lets you (safely of course) tan completely as went on at Naked City (not been there, so new fact picked up here).  I am familiar with its reputation as a wedding destination  I know one English couple (both lawyers) who married there, followed by a blessing service at the bride's home village church in England.

Hi Solomon!!

So glad you enjoyed this write. I saw the phrase
and it just tilted more to the seedy side of Vegas.
Still want to go there myself. Maybe even renew our
wedding vows. LOL

why not right?

Thanks for checking this out and leaving a comment amigo:)
