Faces walking on bodies that seem bloated and over fed (not
like I was the poster boy for the breakfast of champions), “my god is this what
society has come to?, ”white brown and black faces tall short and lean faces talking
and walking in long hospital white corridors stacked on levels one above
another anxious signs begging for attention children darting and playing in my
path “oops” just missed that one, look away to seem nonchalant to hide that
fact what wanted to do to the rude kid (that was the second one) in a grand
inviting space made for the ordinary to feel as if they were some where grand
and special, and I think we did.
Where was I? I was in Connecticuts Fox woods Casino Mall. Yes the
Casino had found another way to lure its pray, I mean the ordinary, to its works,
so that along with shopping some could gamble or the young could be imprinted
with the thought “lets go to that mall I remember” definitely good for future
business.
I and the family
went there to celebrate a birthday and eat out. I never liked buffets so, just
walked around and played a few games. Well gambling didn’t go well so I
continued my walk and viewed gracious forest scenes from out windows as I
walked toward the casino mall. I finally sat down on strategically arranged
benches that formed a semicircle around what seemed to be an information booth
all placed in the center of a grand glass atrium.
Below is a quick
sketch of the mall atrium with ornaments hanging and women receiving some
information in the lower portion of the sketch.
