Children on plinths.
Painted masterpieces.
These artists perform
dreams and hot spoons.
Grey as kerbs
who shine for ten dollars.
Moonlight bullion
fades away.
Every price
has a cost
wrapped in tarpaulin
is the never was born
and always dying.
Walk past the enamel masks
where tears and innocence hide.
Ignore the children in denier
who bark for hiding jackals
the night song of Pattaya.
