DAY FIVE (DREAM FIVE)

Today is supposed to be the biggest shopping day of the year. I guess it is appropriate then, that I dreamt the Mall of America transformed into a spaceship and blasted off into the stratosphere. It was one cinder block departing from so much black top. And at the head of the ship, a child’s bedroom, androgynously decorated, complete with glass walls so occupants could witness, the swirling and spinning of the passing cosmos. It was for children suffering from leukemia, charity recipients from the Make A Wish Foundation. And on the window, a bold sponsor’s logo read, “McDonalds: Making Wishes Come True.”
