Shopping on Baltimore Street
Some things you buy. Some things own you. Pockets empty, value exceeding price tag. Everything we purchased was a bargain, priceless: the Brazilian chime seller who didnt hear the clanging, that fat-butt-grandma at sunset who needed help to sit on the still warm railing, the man with information on the best place to be pierced, a six-pack of Wild Goose to go, five wings on a napkin, four rosary women kneeling, three boys full of Octane 190, two runaways from Wisconsin, an accordion playing, moped riding, brown cat named "mouse" I have them all wrapped in the cellophane history provides for protective viewing. Borrow them when you want. Well pay in time Something precious will surely follow.
