Kemi Xerjoff 2023

Cracking, the crust of freshly candied apples breaks,
Caramel flows sugary, fruity over warm vanilla crescents.

The desserts are served for nibbling on a bed of sandalwood,
Creamy, dry, woody and paired with animalistic oud.

Originating in Laos, deeply woody, dark with a pleasant stable note,
Yet in no way stinky, a radiant presence wave after wave.

But then the bag of fizzy powder bursts and trickles down fine,
Sparkling, sweet and fruity it rushes and foams up and down.

Warm, delicate shimmer of vanilla turns into a sweet cloak,
Underneath, one can clearly hear the beaver's and civet's pawing.

After a good while, the fizzy powder no longer fizzes,
Only dry wood and caramel float in the sea of vanilla.

And so we drift along on our raft of oud,
Smoking fruity flavored tobacco, yes, life tastes good.

Fin.
