Hors D'Oeuvre

hors d'oeuvre-- 
                                        the stroke of a pendulum
                                                booby hatch













                  inspired by a scene in a mental hospital in Kolkata, India

He told me to stay one evening with patients( no maniac patients). I found a patient very nagging. When asked the duty nurse told me he was just like a baby and only a small quantity of food could satisfy him.That's the cue Paul...rajat
