Confused Walk

Confusing walk It was the longest street in the world shops on each side selling salami and cheese depending on the shop, the same product had a different name proclaiming to be the best. Today the shops are empty, save for a few dogs, people are tired of salami and cheese, you can’t fool them with a fancy name hinting they are Italian made in Livorno; what a fraud! In shops, there were cheese parties for mice sitting pretty nibbling the stray dog and I were not invited; we kept on walking in the hope of finding a butcher selling hamburger meat and dog bones. Where the street ended in another country consisting of sheep clog dancing shepherds, my sister had a hotel, I could get a room In the basement, but preferred to board a clipper sailing to Japan.
