as far as I could see
open carts with canvas tops
lined both sides of the street
merchants vyed for our attention
replacas of Renaissance treasures
flaming strings of coral
leather purses, jackets and gloves
I was entranced by the warm balmy scent of leather
Kate Bush singing Wuthering Heights
there was a guy she met with friends on spring break
he may let us crash at his place
we found him selling purses
she showed him pictures
he gave her a key
he had a new roommate
pointed to a leather stand down the street
we would fetch our luggage
settle in
and meet them both for dinner
