Pagara (Bombing the Chinese Shop) ~ (Suriname)

Suriname

Sometimes, as a child

You do really stupid things

Which you will always remember

Like the pagara that I made

On New Year’s Day

Out of unexploded fireworks

And secretly placed in a rathole

Under the gate of a Chinese shop

Finally, after several trials

The thing exploded like hell

I’m sure that until this day

Chinese Uncle hasn’t got a clue

Who bombed his gate
