Exotic

Bohemian skirts and deeply colored saris. Rich perfumes and spicy foods. Large colorful flowers and thick accents.

The rich flavor of the new exciting. Rituals and customs unknown to us.

Mystical beads and elaborate paintings. Tattoos and bare breasts.

Fiery sunsets and dusty dirt roads.

The way we live seems so cold and hostile. Our emotions shielded behind metallic bars.

They let their lives flow forth, even in the hardship, the know the simple pleasures.

Rich spice and dark skin. Warm fires and cool water.

Minimal clothing and bright body paints. Braided hair and body piercing.

I wish for exotic for a change.
