--as we circled the fountain, an elderly couple appeared at the gate of the courtyard.
The man called out, "You can jump in if you want to, I won't tell anyone."
He approached. "Where are you from? Are you two married?"
"We just met," he replied.
I liked that,
The absence of denial.
In the balmy night air, the fleeting taste of
Possibility, intoxicating.
