Electric Wire

Siem Reap
Kingdom of Cambodia
electric wires reach
stretching down streets
curled under teeth
and wrapped around
sound of motorbike
humming by
a bit of dust
floats through air
and catches your throat
as you sing, "ah, Cambodia"
walk to the pagoda
slip off your shoes
—quietly—
shuffle your feet
and sit—meditate—
monks teach, watch
walk among you
robes of golden orange
umbrella fends off heat
sun shines bright
—the light—
in Siem Reap
