the mad man of marine drive ordered a suit at brioni .., a photo by firoze shakir photographerno1 on Flickr.
he paid by credit card 
two hundred thousand rupees 
he wanted a suit for style 
comfort and ease 
his trousers flat front 
he wanted side crease 
he wanted them to 
fall straight 
not bunch at the knees 
he loved the brioni cut 
the color palette
light weight 
coordinated 
two piece  
he ordered 
matching shoes 
a leather belt
a narrow tie 
a dashing suit 
not a showpiece 
i asked him 
how he got so
 much money 
he said he was 
working 
as an informer 
for the police 
he wanted to 
wear this suit 
on the birthday 
of his grand niece 
dedicated to joseph 
in transit 
between italy and greece 
a brioni suit 
a brioni wallet 
a brioni valise
