I think this came five times, is your computer playing up?
 
I have a similar piece about the Samovar at Jehangir Art Gallery, a roost for lovers.

Small World

It's a Taj Mahal sort of feeling
of sending postcards 'home'
of haggling for articles of faith
of dancing in Amazonian rain forests
of trickling down on ropes
from user-friendly rock faces
somewhere in the Andes
of living with winged low-life
in some equatorial island somewhere
of emailing memories
through Dell and Apple laptops
concealed from greedy native eyes
in sturdy Swiss-made backpacks.

It's a Taj Mahal sort of feeling
that comes from using
the info-mation highway
of mouse-mounted windows
of easy, downloadable wisdom
and high resolution porn
of hits and eyeballs
of a smart, impersonal type face
somewhere in the centre of nowhere
somewhere between
the longitudes of free trade
coloured dollar green and white
entered through a key.

It's a Taj Mahal sort of feeling
of navigating the world
on glossy, rose-tinted
travel books.
A feeling of
marble strength
and stamina
for busrides and
travellers checks,
photographs, and
awesome

observations about
what a colossal
waste,
that is
this Life.

Some travelling gyan.
