7 - Bangkok




Two things are degrading to a man:
Learning that is superficial,
Sexual enjoyment that is paid for
And dependence on another for food.
The Hitopadesha


The Golden Mountain


How many kids
on that bike? Four kids
The temple stuff’s
not all that nicemillions of stairs
and bells to ring




Eurotrash

It’s really popular
Put your hand
on itswear-
words in Thaithe Nation's
stand on child sexUncool

Lovely to see these with colour pictures.

The publishers who produced Summer Book from Eye Street are BF Publishing, by the way...Raewyn's communication consultancy is called Bright Communication, (no s).

Thought you could like to know that.
