Lots of shops are in old buildings in Europe, it makes for a pleasant walkable city center. The upper floors are usually offices, services (like a dentist’s) or residential.
This one does not look evil, at least it has windows.
But it could be evil if there was a giant ominous parking lot in front clashing with the neo-Baroque façade.
Slowly, gently, aisles unfold their wonders,
Grasp them, see them, beneath fluorescent numbers.
Turn your gaze away from the bustling street outside,
Turn your steps to where deals and savings bide,
And listen to the checkout scanner glide.
Close your eyes, picture discounts you have never seen,
Purge your mind of the other stores you’ve been.
Close your eyes, let your shopping cart fill more,
And shop, as you’ve never shopped before.
