Silent observations
October 22, 2008
You look at me,
like I look at you
if you were me,
here.
But you are not me
and I am not you,
which is clear.
More of you,
less of me
now.
Some smile and others stare,
all trying to make money--charm and dance,
only known way how.
They know phrases
in languages worldwide,
payment is international chit-chat.
Under paid and over paid-for,
make a deal, have some tea,
shake hands and that's that.
Exotic smells, over manufactured pieces,
hand made gems decorate the streets,
so many people,
everyone wants something.
Country to country,
it's all the same thing.
Pictures, taxes, gifts, and entrance fees.
Money please.
