Dragon beard candy/gul tare
Unorganized strand of white silk hair
intertwined together to look like a nest
harboring fillings of sesame and nuts
encased in honey hairs
like a tooth inside a pillow
awaiting to be picked up by the tooth fairy
the delicate strands of hair
easy to break and easy to bend
creates a soft cushion and barrier around the center
protecting the filling
like a king protected by his castle
seeing it makes me feel hungry
but at the same time very curious
Does it taste good?
Is it sweet?
What is the texture like?
What is it made from?
Where is it from?
the light shines on the fragile hairs
making them appear to be bleach white
contrasting with the dark color of the table
I hear the crushing of nuts
the screams of melting snow
it doesn’t look sweet
but its taste surely is
