I was drawn to the novena window display, but knowing it will be awkward to stop and stare, to disturb the flow of people;
sometimes it's in trying to mimic the sense of purpose of the people bound for destinations that gets to me, people who could 'draw up an itinerary of their futures', and tenaciously receive clipped instructions from their walkie-talkie handphones.
I will see people glance up with a precise and practised boredom, hear the trains thunder on through cemented darkness.
And feel a little out of the loop.
Krauss got it right here.
"The city hurt to look at, all angles and glints of sun like shattered glass.
The trees were pitiful, anchored in concrete.
The distant city rises up through the trees, and the park is littered with joggers and the shouts of children with miraculous ideas."
