A MARKET WITHOUT A SQUARE.

.

Rushing feet with naked bodies,

Disfigured hearts pumping noise,

Suffering trays with wicked pepper,

A market without a square.

.

Premature bargaining from poor tongues,

Shining goods with no living-good,

Sick buyers, ghost sellers,

A market without a square.

.

Cheap baskets, costly pitchers,

Naked beings selling clothes

To blind tailors with fake threads,

A market without a square.

.

Fierce rain with friendly drops,

Silence distorted,

No shade to keep our heads,

A market without a square.

.

A market without a square,

Triangle without a tip,

A life without purpose,

A market without a square.
