Sandy and I walked down (up?) University Street on our way to see Jane Bunnet and Hilario Duran at the boutique department store on Bloor. The walk felt interminable.
As we proceeded up the congested sidewalk, I saw a wavery mirage on the side of a large building.
At first it made no sense. It was immense. It was some sort of graphic. Vibrant color. Undefined shape.

Was it a huge photo that was actually inside the building and I was seeing it through a glass exterior? Or was it some sort of projection onto the side of the building? A reflection from another building that faced this one?
What was it? Gigantic, red, amorphous.
Finally, when we got close enough, I saw. A heart. Not a heart like a Valentine heart. Not a painterly rendition of a heart. An actual heart, as in ripped from a chest, heart. A real heart. Wha????

And then there was this, I swear to God, on the sidewalk within sight of the Godzilla heart:
