don't look at me
like I'm cotton candy,
sold by
wandering vendors
on beaches sandy,
the aroma of hot chai,
the sizzle
of frying fritters,
the sun against
your mahogany skin,
the ignorant oaf
who litters,
I am none of these,
but what I can be,
is the intoxication
that consumes you
after several sips
of brandy.
