Part One: Rogue-Citizen: The Day The Market(s) stood still…

Tunisia 17th December 2010: According to friends and family, local police officers had allegedly targeted and mistreated Bouazizi for years, including during his childhood, regularly confiscating his small wheelbarrow of produce; but Bouazizi had no other way to make a living, so He continued to work as a street vendor. Around 10 p.m. on 16 December 2010, He had contracted approximately 450 dinar in debt to buy the produce He was to sell the following day. On the morning of 17 December, He started his workday at 8 a.m. Just after 10:30 a.m., the police began harassing him again, ostensibly because He did not have a vendor’s permit.

Bouazizi did not have the funds to bribe police officials to allow his street vending to continue. Bouazizi, angered by the confrontation, went to the governor’s office to complain and to ask for his scales back. The governor refused to see or listen to him. Bouazizi then acquired a can of gasoline from a nearby gas station and returned to the governor’s office. While standing in the middle of traffic, he shouted, “How do you expect me to make a living?” He then doused himself with the gasoline and set himself alight with a match at 11:30 a.m. local time, less than an hour after the altercation.

It has been said that love of money is the root of (many) evil(s) and a wandering from the path which has brought-upon us much pain. The lack (need) of money is so quite as truly.

The-Train moved slowly out from the glass and steel raised slab of the new edge-of-The-Town main-line railway-platform running alongside the banking blank back of High-Street shops, and the Station Car-Park awaiting return. Into harvested-fields and open-grazed pastures below remaining precipitous pineforest planted-poplar and willow wind-break shielded through The Trees. The New Days’ Sun appeared speared, blinking-awake…Burst!

Through: The-Train-Carriage compartment breaking-beyond the greyblue green-scene staggered and staged, rolled and ranged. From: the eastpeaked settling yellow-orange onto the western-hills shadow-flanking purplegreen valleys and up-country, the grid-frame farmed-plains, where the day was already begun. A steam white-grey lifted across a dried-up estuary in thin-rain spluttering over an elevated iron-riveted ochre painted girder-bridge, built on pillars of the deepest-yellow red local rock and brickwork arched and breached.

With the Suns’-rays The Train rattled-on emergent as through a fog over the beached river below. Onto the other-side of a ravenous gaping-gorge overspilling through the outskirts of the most recently built-up ancient RiverHarbour Town and Sea-Port City.

Global; that morning the Workers’ and City Commuters’ Train trundling alongside, for now, across a chequered black and yellow criss-crossed arterial hot-tar Road weighted-heavy and ever busy with Traffic. Cycle and Motorcycle, Omnibus and Coach. Car and Caravan-trailer and Lorries’ articulatedJuggernaut container-Shipment on-board.

The I-nvestment Merchant-Banker sat-back and glanced across at The Admin.i-strative Accounts-Clerk: both sat in opposite seats a fixed-table between them. Travelling on this same-Train same-time, same-Carriage: for The-Clerk the same-Seat if that or any other was to be had amongst the everyday commuters seated and a few standing today and as usually crammed-in each weekday early-morning into The-Financial: Capital-City.
