Tourist Woman

	For Tourist
	Woman, the itching is turning to fever and then to form
	For Tourist
	Woman, insecurities are bunk-pollen for the swarm
	And vice-versa, the swarm, turning to fury, captures a prisoner
	Tourist Woman is unhappy with the meager conditions they have given her
	From Oxford to
	UCLA to impoverished streets of a
	Bengali village
	T.W. fights for nothing, believes in nothing, except an image
	The image in her mind is of vague origin of, mostly, western result
	Somewhat pyramid, somewhat cross, somewhat a mongrel cult
	Like the old man
	Who slept his life away
	Romantics are doomed (and that’s a good thing)
