Several of us
went
to the movies
seeing there
what
it is like
to live in
a land
where
cynicism thrives
the work of
rapacious leaders
pleased with
what
they have wrought
put into place
by a populace
too gullible
to recognize
blatant avarice.
One
gullible character
struggles toward integrity
but is tragically
or pathetically
used
and cast off.
A composition
of life in decay
full of riotous energy
singing and dancing
while all rots away.
We
tried to find
a coffee shop
after the movie
a place to
sit and talk
as if
still in Paris
but
the town was
zipped tight
so we
called it a night
and returned
to our huts.
