La Mulatta Tragique

A New Guinea

Early this evening, as I walked to my therapists office, I took a detour, as I couldn't bring myself to stay at work any later than 4:57 and was thus early for my subsequent appointment. I walked through the "mall" at columbus circle, which really can't count as a traditional american mall, but instead was thoroughly made-over to pass as decent in new york. It was less a mall and more several designer stores stacked on top of each other across from a polished sidewalk. I didn't dally, and I certainly did not buy anything.

I exited the building and walked up 48th street. I spotted a large white rodent cage on a hotel trolley for one of the buildings where rich people linger. Near it loomed a chestnut poodle of the large variety, tethered to a young black doorman who looked loathe to be charged with his task. As I walked by, the poodle took a sniff at the cage that was laid with pine chips and lettuce leaves. I peered into the brown plastic log to see if I could get a glimpse of the critter that lived there, if he was there at all. I was resigned to assume it empty when a windswept face popped into view through the hole.  It was a guinea pig with pearly glass eyes and the kind of hair that looks like it's been groomed lovingly by a mother cow. The guinea pig seemed suddenly aware he was being watched by me, sniffed out by the poodle, all while making history as the first guinea pig to put his paws on the walk of fame on W 48th street. He tried not to seem affected, and nervously chewed his hay.
