Poetry – Charades for Tourists

Charades for Tourists

Caricature and charade

For the tourist trade.

Goats in trees,

Sun loungers in the breeze,

Camel rides

And French Fries.

Aragon oil

From peasants’ toil?

All with its attendant fees.

The whole economy of the country seems to be aimed at tourists. Is everywhere the same now? Is the whole world one big Disneyland? Does everyone put on a show for the tourist cash?

The world has become a theme park exploiting every cultural peculiarity and natural phenomenon.
