Memories of Bright Posteriors
If you are in Car Nicobar I suggest you listen to the sea at night. May be count the waves as you lay waiting for sleep. Each wave defined by a distinct roar. It was a nice thing to do when back in school I would spend most of my summer vacations in Car Nicobar's Lapathy area. Quite a nice place actually given the things you could do. Play pirate atop a discarded rusting Second World War Japanese canon....or just laze around counting the bright posteriors of lonesome Nicobaris (as the natives are known there) typically draped in bright boxer shorts.... as they made way to the sea. The sea was reassuring. Nicobaris are expert swimmers....and their slim canoes (called Hodis)... with extended bamboo beams.... did the fine balancing act. The Hodis do not sink and a Nicobari doesn't drown.... we heard. It changed two years ago.....
