And which I can't, I mean, I absolutely don't have my Visa in hand, and they're on HOLIDAY today, it's a festival and the Consulate's Closed For Business, Janitors are Answering the Telephone Today ... Yes, who barely speak a word of English. Which is okay. Except this was a country with a language in common, at one time we actually prided ourselves on having English as a common language. We worked to attain a commonality that would allow us to live and breathe and be whole, a community in humanity.. together.
Now it's the opposite. We've forgotten how to merge, how to meld .. we've become so intent on being singular that we're blind to our selfish ways ...
and they do it so well, I mean Listen Man, can you imagine being one of a horde, an absolute horde, at all times so that as you walk the street you walk as one, you breathe in and out, as one, break wind and move silently to and fro, as one ... you could virtually disappear. If I were born into an Indian caste, I would likely be the milkmaid. One of the lowest. But I'm wondering whether that would be a blessing in some ways .. not the cruelty of the caste, but God knows I've suffered that in this country most of a lifetime of childhood ...
I hate myself.
