Train through Bangkok

[psycosynthesis]

A satellite dish peeks like an inquisitive,
informative impostor
From the roof of a slum
in Bangkok: city of contrast.

A bright-red and slogan-bearing
dish on a rust-red
corrugated iron roof.

I catch minute glimpses of culture
from a train window:
Shrines among rubbish
residing in yards of rubbish:
trash territory.

Hyundai's and Toyota's
with gold-rimmed wheels
parked in imaginary automatic garages.

 

[Mehm]

I think you've captured the scene well

 

[Jabberwocky]

When i read this it leaves me with a feeling of wanting to read more, go into more depth within your verbal discription defining various other landscapes. I enjoy this immensely.

 

[(Wordy)]

Nicely done. I was in Bangkok last year, and this gave me glimpses back to the city.

 

[Jamshyd]

I will agree that garbage and general ickyness are the most salient features in bkk .

p.s. You people should visit me sometime!

 

[dragonix]

I can get my fill of this city from this probably one of the last places I would try to visit would love to see Thailand don't get me wrong

Pulling into katmandu
smoke rings fill the air
perfumed by a nepal night
the express will get you there
