I would never have dreamt I would've become involved in the world of Amulets, I had as a tourist simply walked up a few streets but that's as far as my interest ever went. However recently a truly beautiful (Im not just saying that) 15 year old Chinese boy and orphan who is also our informal foster child sent me a very poignant letter. The letter came from the correctional institute where he is incarcerated for drug related dealings. In the letter he rather earnestly and urgently requested that I go to Thailand and there to buy him an amulet blessed by a particular monk. This would insure he insisted that he could kick the habit entirely and more precisely get out in one piece. Well never needing much of an excuse to go to Bangkok and it being a long weekend I left that very same Friday. And so a strange journey of greed, superstition, intrigue and sensual awakening began. However it would take weeks to explain all that (ha ha) so to cut a long story short I couldn't find his amulet at the amulet market but was directed to a man who knew a man who arranged would meet me at my hotel the next day. When he arrived I decided to have him directed straight to my rooms. I wasn't sure how the hotel would see dealings of this kind in the lobby. He turned out to be a rather tall strikingly handsome but otherwise thoroughly louche looking Chinese gent which was of course an immediate turn on. Any ideas of this nature where soon dampened when he smiling broadly sideways at me sat down in the chair I had set up in the little reception/office area in front of my desk. He appeared to have what looked like a complete set of solid gold teeth. After pouring him some tea which he balanced between long fingers on his knee, his hair lanky and slippery fell over his long narrow shifty eyes and high cheek bones as he reached down to his case with the other arm. The amulet was produced. Unremarkable and rather grubby, yellow stained glass concealed a tiny barely visible something all wrapped in plastic and held in a small zip bag. Of course Im no expert but by this stage was expecting a few surprises it's true however the price wasn't one of them. Thrown a little by the price (50 000 baht) I decided immediately to fake it and only because I couldn't be sure it wasn't fake itself. It didnt look nice thats for sure. So armed with a rather lovely shiny alternative and substantially (substantially) cheaper I said my good-byes. He didn't seem in the least bit concerned, pushy or otherwise irritated, in fact his smile was rather enchanting. I had to make a quick re-evaluation of my lack of fondness for a mouth full of gold teeth but was all too pleased I got off so lightly so I tried seeing him off to the door as politely and quickly as possible. You never know when a mood can abruptly swing against you. However just as he was about to clap the case shut a bunch of penises popped from his loose suit pocket. Yes penises, smooth perfect penises, each one perfect each one unique, taught erect engorged penises in what looked like wood, ivory and stone lay spread on the carpet. Ooops times up will try and finish tomorrow, never enough hours in the day....
