Wanting nothing
Needing nothing
Expecting nothing
Fearing nothing
Fabric all around
Village fabric all around
Village fabric neat
Village fabric cared for
Village fabric watched
Village fabric raked
Village fabric trodden
Village fabric lived in like a sarong
Dogs all around
Cows all around
Cows by the side
Dogs in the road
People passing
Fences passing
Aromas passing
Aroma of cooked curry leaf
Aroma of burning
Featureless full of features
Full of hand-hammered features
Full of dug features
Chopped features
Spilled features
Built features
Culverted featured
Planted features
Walled features
Watched features
Poured features
Plucked features
Bright features
Dim features
Doorways and openings
Dark inside the caves
Dark inside the screens
Dark behind the openings
Dark beside the bright
Hung bananas heavy
Cakes and biscuits "light"
Lightest are the reloads unseen
Unfathomed
Useful
Strains of music
Recorded seldom sung
Drums and bells and horns and voice
Strains of fabric
Woven and unwoven
Found and unfound
Warped and woofed of generations
Barefoot and flipflopped
Shod and sandalled
Salted simmering
Stepping stirring
Striped strapping
Sliding cycling
