The sky appears to be the only ceiling,
As this bazaar stalls fair weather in exchange.
And while sales are all important, a lot of
Begging & bartering seems popular to interchange.
Admittedly, my fascination is endless, as
The diversity & creativity search my soul.
While I roam about to find novel & new treasures,
Makes me think I've been stuck too long in a black hole.
Whether it's the open air or leisurely pace, the
Pleasure of shopping fills me beyond just common sense.
Since one can easily connect with these artisans
And merchants, creating bonds at no ones expense.
Floating o'er smooth seas of unhampered trust,
The datelines became all important, a must,
The professional ethic is passed as nuisance,
In the 90’s no one cared to check, or ever since.
Broadcast good, bad or ugly, never mind,
Terrible, fake, unchecked, whatever kind,
Announce the authenticity by being embedded,
The info got censored, tailored, always vetted.
Newsless stories, political agenda got divulged,
Stakeholders chipped-in, CEO’s pockets bulged,
Let’s not distract the narrative, bore and unreal,
Let’s not overreact, heads down, as we kneel.
They cannot depress but announce betoken word,
Never mind, the nonsense that borders with absurd,
Surprise, their days aren’t over for we’re soft,
As they continue their “float-over-seas” waft.
