One of a Kind
I woke to the noise from an airplane and heat penetrating my cheeks.
Wondering where I was. Soon to find……
I was in city filled with glib drivers but unforgettable rides.
Quite streets that reveal its true identity to trusting strangers.
Shoeless boys with empty cups.
Complimentary smells, but no taste.
Minced toes, after walks that led to enticing conversations.
Unstable prices leading to breathless bargaining.
Raining days entrench with dreading humidity.
Men who cherish the art of infidelity.
Women intelligence hidden behind painted lips.
Yassa Poulet, Strawberries, Chocolate and Tarenga!
