5 DAYS, 3 HOTELS, 5 MEETINGS

the CHATRIUM (Days 1 and 2) 
indeed decadent in buffet and palatial in rooms
pluses of an otherwise boring neighborhood
just Charlie Brown and a beer tower playing pingpong
as the Bhoman-Khunaram Temple whispered echos
while the ASEAN locked with SARC in a tango 

the AMARI WATERGATE (Day 3)
cavernous like the the pomp and g[l]or[y][e] of CSR
four food stations interpellating high-powered forums
like Indian creamed with gender or Thai sauteed value chains
esoteric bit coins strewn along a roadside saloon
where carcasses got hanged, chopped and devoured

the PICNIC HOTEL (Days 4 and 5)
as layman as the chaos of eclectic Pratunam
as cool as the towering elegance of Baiyoke
cold beer, grilled meat and the bounty of the sea
sustenance in between PSC, SIDA and UNDP
a great view overshadowed by a lousy breakfast
