The Supermarket Circus

A Story by Abishai100

A 'journey' of a gypsy-circus 'force' in New England for a theatrical supermarket-ctr. 'performance' for post-9/11 era...diamond(s)!

A very fun Memorial Day 'gypsy-fable' inspired by Il Postino. Enjoy,

A force-circus team of gypsy-faerie nomads composed of philosophers/soldiers/artists landed at Logan (Airport!) and wanted to create a special New England (Western civilization) pageantry for modern era traffic theater.

RED-MASK: We've been a gypsy-team for some time now, and we've traveled in Transylvania and we'll play chess in Boston!

So, the Red-Mask circus-force team land at Logan and take a rented van to Harvard-Square to play chess and have a dandy-time putting on their 'travel-show' before deciding to take their van to the supermarket-ctr. This is where they'll present themselves as 'ornamented' travelers/tourists to get special 'social attention' from the traffic of consumers in this post-9/11 era of distance(s)!

RED-MASK: We 'toast' to the excellence of spirit(s) from our origin-lands and the campfires by the Urals; Boston draws us!

The leader/'captain' of Red-Mask walks into the supermarket-ctr. costumed as a gypsy-faerie and begins to dance around to the delight of the consumers while wielding a toy red-water gun, exclaiming, "End of terrorism!"

Another member of Red-Mask is Kitana, a finely-decorated soldier from the Urals-area(s) and loved partaking in the 'globe-intrigue' of the Ukraine/Crimean tribulation(s). She's walking into the supermarket-ctr. (New England) and presents herself as a 'sorceress' and holds a glass-ball (made of synthetic-material) and proclaims to the children, "See in this ball the 'magic' of the United States magazines!"

Another member of Red-Mask is an Alien video-game aficionado and dart-mouths to the video-game area of the supermarket-ct. (New England) and begins to 'showcase' her extra-ordinary skills at fighting the hideous insect-dragon predatory 'Xenomorph' cyber-creatures in the demo-arena and clearly shines as a 'diplomat' of Alien fanfare!

Two more Red-Mask gypsy-faeries are schoolteachers and walk into the supermarket-ctr. (New England) with notepads and request incoming consumer-citizens of Boston offer their signature-styles of writing, but insist they're to write the names of someone they know and not their own names. Their message --- "This is fun...like Facebook!"

A duet-couple of Red-Mask are twin children Anya/Esha who walk into the supermarket-ctr. with toy water-guns and tell everyone working at the cashier-stations (rather defiantly!), "Water-guns should be cheaper in New England!"

A final member of Red-Mask is a card-shark who's walking into the supermarket-ctr. and insists that beautiful women walking in that day discover his gypsy-faerie magic by offering his 'uncanny' ability to entertain them ('liberally') by guessing the card that the consumer picks from his 'gypsy-art' deck! They're 'truly' entertained/comforted in this post-9/11 era of United States distance(s)/traffic fear(s).

CUSTOMER: My God, Red-Mask is 'fantastic' --- they remind me of Cats or something!

However, on that 'fateful' day at the Boston supermarket-ctr. (New England), a ruthless blood-diamond baron (Holland) marches into the 'shop' with a bag full of toy water-guns filled with acid, intending to steal some diamonds to 'veil' his identity and merchandising traffic through major diamonds-shops like Zales/Kay. This guy's a psycho, and he spots one of the gorgeous/lovely female members of Red-Mask and is determined to kidnap her and keep her with him as his newfound 'faerie' angel of the West!
