City

New York is dark gray and black and occasionally, wears red high heels.
The sun is brighter here and blue bounces off the crisp whiteness of your linen.
They wear dark glasses in the high fashion of the underground.
We sip iced venti lattes in cutting edge silences.

Fraternal and communal, organic and asexual
Beautiful and banal and shiny like vinyl.

New York, Paris London!!!. Aap duniya ki sair kar rahi hain ( Ek purana Raj Kapoor ke film ka gana yaad aaya - around the world in eight dollars, ) bahoot dinon ke baad maine aap ka blog dekha aur khushi hui ki u r progressing by leaps and bounds
Kahaan Bangalore aur kahaan NY?
Khair, I cannot understand your fascination for London. The only thing I like about it is Westminster Abbey, Englishmen (Iand women)are best when they are dead and buried.
Paris ? I stayed near Montmartre in a budget hotel which was like a 3 tier AC coach of Indian Railways. Vietnamese girl serving french loaf and tea in plastic cup for breakfast. Filthy streets with garbage dumped in black plastic bags hung on lamp posts. Thnoroughly disgusting. The cruise down the river was good and also all those museum pieces in Louvre. Mona Lisa was a let down.I wanted to see Moulin Rouge but the entrance fee was unaffordable.
Arc de Triomphe had more americans than frenchmen. Went up to stage 2 of Eiffel at night one side of paris was blazing, the other dark.
Well, I havent been to US. But Obama is here right now and if his consulate grants me a visa i will come soon
If u find it good, it must be so.

NB Now I have a pet cat too, he is called Truffle. Doesnt drink milk or eat fish. I think he was Swami Nityananda in his previous birth.
So long Therapy !

You are the rare writer worthy of this tool.

I look suspiciously upon "asexual". Surely not old New York? But every other word is a thing of rare beauty. And your profile picture is quite exquisite.

Came upon your blog after quite some time. Indeed, every colour, every shade of a new place speaks volumes.

Thanks for the moment.
