Would you return:
To the hollow of a baobab tree?
To the dry thunder of a summer’s afternoon?
To the hot and the salty and the sweet?
To the Africa of your childhood?

So brave

And wild

Like the salty kiss of a golden temptress
A siren, luring you to a sweet death

Sweet and sour to your heart
A cake of white-hot joy
A never-ending kiss
A rainstorm

A dragon
