This Is Zen

An empty box of wine on the sticky linoleum spells out the breaking of caste; here the plateau is littered with condom wrappers, half-eaten scraps of food and other assorted forms of trash. Oh yeah, brother! this is 2009, a brave new world begun with a blast, a world where derricks burn and markets crash; Here there be Tygers, here there be a chance to break the Hindu cycle, to rise like embers from the ash!
