Drawn

like an addict

we were

swallowed

by the press of

dogs and humans

at the street fair

of art and crafts...

and business sales

 

Siren

songs sliced the air

pushing

familiarity on

strangers

in the cold sun

of a winter's

day in the

desert

 

Lush

profusion of

looky-loos and

eager connoisseurs

stealing glances

taking chances

in mingling flesh

to make their

purchases
