Local Paintball

There's a flower that's currently flowering all over our district. It's a pretty flower and it has these little inedible purple berries, maybe the size of a small kernel of corn.

The stem of a papaya leaf is naturally hallow, maybe about the diameter of a big drinking straw. Papaya leaf stems are always available in these parts.

While the flowers are in bloom, kids are using the hallow stems to spit the berries at their friends. Alex and I call it 'local paintball.'
