visit to a longhouse

i bought cigarettes, biscuits

to join in their fun



a longhouse in sarawak

some can accommodate up to

a hundred families, so long

that one cannot see the other end

when one stands at one end.

tourists visiting longhouses

usually buy tibits to win

hearts of the former headhunters.

those who wish to stay back can

use their wide verandah to sleep on.
