Green Light Blues
The intersection spreads out like a lazy, old man over the green fields of rural Illinois. Grass licks the edge of the bitumen road, then stretches back until it greets fields of corn. Short ambitious green sprouts of corn to the north are juxtaposed by their taller rusty orange cousins showing off their husks to the south. A warm blue day dances across the sky as flickers of white clouds run around the morning sun. In this day of long shadows and cool breezes, two super-intelligent traffic lights sit at the intersection of Standard City Road and State Route 4.
