of brown skin and black hair 
where curries flow
 
with a spicy flare 
the smells linger 
the tastes
 are divine...
"Hey you, Paki, you smell like stinkin' curry" 
So I
 stink like curry...better than stinking like meat and
 potatoes...
Meat...so dull...either too dry...or too raw
 
Potatoes...so...white...so...white
Curry...a nice red, 
orange, 
yellow,
 
brown...
Texture...fluid, 
smooth, 
creamy...
The air fills with its sweet spicy aroma 
tantalizing
 your taste buds... 
teasing your imagination...
If only we could live peacefully in a world 
among so
 many colours 
where curries flow 
with a spicy flare
 
the smells linger 
the tastes are divine...

The darkness of darkness, 
the gloom of doom, 
The
 hateful glare, 
that chills you to the bone, 
You hear
 a knock outside your door, 
and stop to wonder what it is
 like 
to be surrounded by fiery torches 
and
 experience absolute terror 
only because you are
 different.
