Kochi: br The capital of br mosquitoes! br And yesterday I met br God while wandering br through Broadway! br Face- red with br mosquito bites and br black from pollution! br br In summer, Kochi is like an br open hearth! br We sat under the br cool shade of a br restaurant floating. br Waited for two mugs of br fresh juice chilled. br br Looking into my eyes, br He asked, ' What do you br expect from me? ' br 'Nothing' br 'Really? ' br 'Yes.' br 'It sounds funny, dear guy… br If I empower you br to kill anybody you like, br if I enarm you br the most powerful of br all weapons, br (Don’t worry, you wont be sinned, br I assure) br tell me, whom do you kill first? br Anti-social elements, br politicians, traitors or br your own foes? ' br “None of them.' br 'Then? ' br 'My self! ' br br 07.03.98 br br Dedicated to: Mr.B.J.R.
