Salafist and Valentine

Salafist Tanka In Timbuktu Tobacco is banned Hands get cut off Of those who smoke cigarettes Awkward if you roll your own Tanka Knocks on the front door A draught of cold air got in Sleeps between us Tomorrow… valentine´s day Insincere words and flowers.

I meant to say the first tanka made me laugh. I stopped smoking but am tempted by the fumes. But for safety reasons I'm staying out of Timuktu.
