the bees here are black with clear-&- blue wings and are the size of a baby’s fist.
there are 7 different varieties of ants. when you die, your friends and family (assuming you had some) come and mourn for 3+ days in your house and from your house comes the sounds of adults milling and chatting and children playing. when you are girl and “become a Big Girl” (get your first menses), you are locked in your room and only women can see you, and an old man with a special book comes and tells a kind of horoscope that determines precisely how many days your confinement must last. when those days are over you are bathed in flower water and dressed in a new dress and the entire community of friends, family, and neighbors come and give their blessings and presents of jewelry and people eat and then later the young boys get drunk and then everyone goes home…. AND ANOTHER THING… IN THIS COUNTRY OF HUNDREDS OF THE MOST SPECTACULAR BIRDS OF ALL SHAPES AND COLORS AND SIZES, THE NATIONAL BIRD IS THE BLACK AND RUST COLORED JUNGLE FOWL… THAT’S RIGHT, THE NATIONAL BIRD IS BASICALLY A FUCKING CHICKEN… go figure…
