Fresh thoughts—————

Bali Pearls offshore and hidden. Makeshift floating guard huts protecting purity itself. To be sold in Seminyak, from black sand beach to black sand beach, one populated by palm trees and the other by people. “Try and burn it,” they say, “test if it’s real.” I don’t want to burn my pearls. They’re real. Who cares. 

Bali Friends transient. When you find one you love, do you drop everything to be in the same place and to do the same thing? Or do you exchange instagram handles and go your separate ways. Swapping comments and likes and slowly fading a w a y until next time.
