Partings.
=========
Partings are fun.
Some force thin,
black, sometimes short,
sometimes long,
strands of fibre cloud
to shout out their political leanings :
Go left or go right.
These if religiously hindu,
dab themselves in the color red
further confusing the rightist hairs.
=================================================================
The next few thoughts are so mischievos that i am falling over....will desist
in the name of
decency.
cheers !
