Matrimonial

Twenty- eight year old Brahmin girl,
having been stripped of most of her religion
and almost all her dignity thereafter,
seeks
super-religious youthinAsia
of any faith, as long as he has it.
You can be antiabortion, antifeminist,
antiapartheid, anticolonialist, antisemicolonialist,
anti-climax (God forbid).
But remember this as we grow old:
If you love me well enough,
then kill me when I’m ill enough.

I come to Bangalore, memorise your number,
I follow the stench to Hafeezpet,
Where's my conversation dangling now?

Adrian, I knew you'd understand! :)
AR - Your conversation is back.
Puddy tat - I apologise for my long silences. I think I may speak here for a while now. Come back!
