Madagascan Girls

from Looking Back on Burned Bridges .. Now available via Amazon almost anywhere in the world ..

No, they are not crazy,
they’re just
the local Madagascan
party, beach
and market girls
who coincidentally all
dance like that ..
Take note how they also
paint their
pretty faces both white
and yellow
with matt buttercups
and daisies
from all of the naturally
occurring
coloured clays to keep
the harshest
of the sun rays at bay ..
Although,
much more importantly,
to help maintain
their unique anonymity ..
