A quaint little bazaar In the heart of the town Tells a story Of a thousand moments Dal Bazaar as they call it Or "Curry Market" for others who don't know. I have fragments of memorable memories Deep within my mind The smell The intoxicating smell of spices Blended with the quiescent yet cacophonous lives Of Merchants and Beggars Of Buyers and Sellers Of Bullions and a single calloused rupia In the hands of the old tramp. The sunlight baking Bags of turmeric. Suspending the scent In the minds of men.
Capering clouds of black and grey And the sudden squall Stirring the monotony Of the customary. The pirouette of rain The one that excites the plainest of the plain Painting the whitewash with shades of grey The chalky walls Dust Moist corriander And the relief of earth Conciliating So rewarding For the ruins of the bare sun.
This flashback into my soul Where all my senses seem to be so awake. The feel of the wooden veranda Scent so inexpressible My eyes devouring the sunset Tasting the heavens Hearing it all. Feeling it all. Oh the plight of poets The ritual to end a poem. Painful.
On the dark side of the moon The light is always more blinding One may hear a patterned tune But Sol is no less binding In the deepest black remains a torrent Energy flows in all directions A pulsing eruption of active current The source of all of life's connections Forces infused in superb creation Energy powers our vivid dreams Seen in a bright fiery demonstration Found at backbone of cosmic seams And every blistering binary star Energy pumping from a quasar bazaar

The bazaar
Dreams that make your body pop, force the show to stop, let your jaw drop and breathe them in,
My dreams are kept in a biscuit tin And hidden in the wardrobe.
File that under miscellaneous or under the skin, subcutaneous, any information unsought, bought, is probably extraneous and that's enough of us,
It's bedtime in the suburbs, the adverts have taken the lead, the dog's flopped into his basket after having a bloody good feed,
About now I'll jump ship, skip the light fantastic, I could dream of her knicker elastic, but they don't make that anymore (actually they might do but what would I know? )
Friday is on the horizon But it'll never come for those who believe that The earth is flat. Or maybe it'll just fall into them.

Bazaar
They leer from the edges, Teeth brushes never touched, And they all chant the same words.
"Come with me, I have what you want. " "Follow to my stall, I know what you need. " "It's here, what you desire, I promise, you can buy it cheap. "
And I wonder. What if they really do? What if somehow they have what I need?
Is Love a trinket you can sell on a scarred table? Is Acceptance a spice that drifts up in the air and makes you snuffle-sneeze? Can one really purchase Bravery in piles on blankets like you would oranges?
If I could do that, buy those things With a handful of American money and a little haggling I don't think I'd want them anymore.

Tales from the bazaar
Same old, same old Nothing changes.
Corporations corporating while The poor men scrape a living.
New lamps for old tramps? I don't think so.
We're being force fed by the mega men Who do it as they please and when the Poor complain They do it, do it and do it again.
Same old story Different book, Wonder why I Give a fuck.
Nothing changes Never will until The corporations stop incorporating And Give the poor men recognition.
When I'm dead and gone The mega men will still be here, Will still go on, Nothing changes just remains Like unwashed sheets And semen stains.
But where there's life there's hope I hope Or is this just a hopeless quest to Do our best and Die.
Get Wealthy: The rich man Needs no heaven. Everything's for sale: Take stock of the market... Prices and caprices vary In the most bizarre of bazaars We haggle with a zest for barter And bargain away the best of ourselves With third world orders of exploitation A good greed never goes unpunished In the most bizarre of bazaars Broken is quite optimal— Don't take it personal: Profits and prophets Both burn in hell The poor man Prays for Rain.
