Australian writer of Montenegrin descent en route to a polyglot European port at the head of the Adriatic mid-2011 shipwrecks instead on the SE Asian Equator. 12, 36, 48…80, 90++ months passage out awaited. Scribble all the while. By some process stranger than fiction, a role as an interpreter of Islam develops; Buddhism & even Hinduism. (Long story.)

Cranberry & Pineapple (July25)
Some incidental / accidental smut in passing couldn’t be resisted. The matter emerged somehow or other. Either before or after the young girl Ruth’s bending for the cat, purring, caressing, she had had her sheer lime green briefs riding up over the top of her jeans. Where was I supposed to look? plumber Georgios defended himself, the raging young bull with a sweet wife at home. In the kitchen later after work, the lad happened to be offered a choice of tea or cranberry juice. Both were declined, as usual. One needed to press G. for any offering thrice at the very least. Unsuccessful on this occasion. However, the latter did raise a comment. Cranberry, hey?… It gives a sweetening to cum, you know. Quite unexpectedly. Oh. Oh. Really? Is that right?… Pineapples was similar, the Cretan added. The tale of the eight-year widow back in Singapore developing her fellatio after her husband had gone to an early grave without, despite numerous requests, failed to draw any interest for the dude. Even the unsweetened brand of the cran produced the effect, it seemed, according to the man. And he wasn’t joking. Well, OK. It would be trialled at the first opportunity back in the Republic, lad was assured; laboratory conditions. We would soon see. In this case, though some of the usual Greek love had been hinted by G, that was clearly confined to only depilated partners. And when the man made his point about the juice there was no suggestion of direct experience, on his own palate, like. Online mention had most likely been his source, as was quickly proved on a simple search. What transpired in the Cretan's matrimonial bed was not here a matter for speculation.

Call of Nature
After six months of fuul it was time for a change at Faisal’s. Last week one of the other diners was seen with a plate of addas before them. Ah, yes! Of course. Good idea. That day however F. had run out of the lentils it must have been. Eventful street this afternoon with half a dozen cops landing for some unknown reason. More eventful still when a woman who was thought to be a Sudanese first stopped at the table seeking coin for food, she said. Loud, abrasive, unable to be denied. After the $2 placed in her palm she went onto the Ethiope table further along, where the old Greek gave her plenty to go on with when she tried the same thing with her. A rasping loud voice from that lady that sounded male at first and brought apologies from the beggar. Toward the end of the addas the girl returned again, this time pleading something that was not clear in the first instant. Even when she hitched up her top it was also not clear. Must have been a skirt she was wearing that she could quickly raise and that was enough for her. When you gotta pee, you gotta pee. There was no hiss or splash. A hand on the table-top to steady herself, with an apology that was squeezed in. A thought to remove indoors was let slide; something like a startled rabbit in the headlights effect operating. By the time she was finished a good puddle resulted. At the register later when Faisal was informed the correction came: the girl was not Sudanese; she was Ethiopian, arrived in the country as an orphan without family. What else? Perhaps mid-20s. During her squat she had mentioned homelessness and they making you homeless. Later she came again to ask and again on leaving from down on the pavement just past the Viet Bottle-o. When she was denied a second time she told you to fuck off then, the little pat on her head meaning nothing to her. The young twelve year old who had knifed the woman in the apartments on the next corner had been an Islander of some kind, probably about the same skin tone and no doubt same family situation.
