Dubai Dubai Dubai Poem by Terence George Craddock (Spectral Images and Images Of Light)

fly to Dubai to buy to buy to buy
at The Dubai Mall visit ostentatious
stores buy at glitzy malls prestigious
brands grandiose flamboyant fakes?

view all showy pomp on prime sales display
majestic splendour spectacle showiness ceremony
is not all real beware purchases deceit pricy spicy
fake brands mimic originals swindles ring dicey?

cash register transactions target tourist beliefs
prime real estate guarantees genuine receipts
behind all great fortunes hide legalized crimes
mimic originals swindles ring cash register dice vice
