#24. PIX FOR POT?

 

#24. PIX FOR POT? 

I volunteer shooting photos for the Washington Square Park Conservancy. I’m only supposed to shoot legal goings-on. So never aim my camera at the druggies, sellers or buyers. 

But today a tall young man, very thin, with bleary eyes seemed in a hurry. Until he eyed my camera. He made eye contact, smiled, and said: 

         “Hey wanna take my picture. Only five                      dollars.” 

         “Sorry I don’t want a picture of you.” 

          “Ok how about two dollars? Or how about my watch? 
          Give me two dollars for my watch? I need it to buy pot.” 

Nice looking watch. But I passed. End of story.
