#38. TAMPON TALE 

I sit quietly on a bench in Washington Square. A play usually begins. Today’s drama: 

    Her to everyone: 
             “Wait, stop him! Call the cops! That                 guy in the black hoodie just stole                 my nine dollars!” 

    Her to me: “Hey Mister can you give me some money? That’s all the money I had.             And I need it to buy tampons. Please, any money? I’m leaking, really! I’m not             a junkie or anything. But I need some tampons right away!” 

 And on and on and on. She ain’t leaving. So, I give her the change in my pocket. 
 
What does she look like? Up to you. You can’t make this stuff up. Or can you?
