the spices of life 18

Night by the beach
The dim light and night stars
Casting shadows embracing sights
Amongst the locals and foreigners

Across the streets
Rows of cafes and restaurants
Bar lounges to drink away blues
On the main island letting loose

The discreet beach boys
Dark skinned guys popular with women
Especially land of the Rising Sun
As those in the know will say

The sex trade on the discreet
Contacts through runners
Sometimes hearing from gossips
Of which housing garden...

The milder drugs
The usage on the discreet
Police do make raids
Keep the menace low

On the beach
Some dark shadows exit
Under the moon light bay
Listening to the waves

Ocassionally drunkards hang
On the beach dreaming away
Of the sea ripples through
The eyes just can't see

Easy life easy traffic
Abundant hawkers' foods
On the island waking to the beat
Smell the night breezes
