A Thousand Myths

The footpath was dusty, with bright spots of the afternoon sun glinting off the pebbles. The only relief was a stunted almond tree(badam-ka-peyd)valiantly struggling against destiny.

Pehle aap, pehle aap.

Achcha, shuruvath apni kahani se hogi.
There is so much to tell but not much to say. I am one of those clutching on to dear life in a rattling bus. I am one of many walking down sidewalks purposefully, ducking lampposts and skipping over potholes, going nowhere. I am not sure of my sex, not physical ambiguity, just that gender has never been of any consequence in my world.
I could care less about someone else's troubles yet I am going to be the medium through which their destinies will be played out. I am home anywhere and as soon as I get there I want to be elsewhere. It is almost like a disease.
I am sure you and I have met.
