Signs (revised)

[j56]

Blanketed in yellow
from a low sun
they glow
like the signs
over their heads.
GATES 3-4 and i for INFORMATION.
Illuminated shapes
so easily understood:
‘There’s planes, here’s counsel’.
But their faces
they’re a riddle.
We are strangers.
Us and our book-cover-faces.

Original:

Blanketed in the yellow glow of a low sun
they resemble the illuminated signs
hanging over their heads - 
GATES 3-4 and i for INFORMATION.
These signifiers, translated, uncover meaning.
But what would they look like to the unlearned eye?
Like their faces.

EDIT:
Blanketed in the yellow of a low sun
They glow like the signs
Slung over their heads –
GATES 3-4 and i for INFORMATION.
Signifiers of concealed meaning
Which interpretation unmasks.
But how would they seem to an untaught eye?
Uninterpretable - like their faces.
