The Indian Tour...
The Indian Tour is coming to a close. Everyday I meet the people whom I shared journeys, tears and frustrations with. I traveled from Nepal to Benares with a beautiful man named Itzak - he just appeared out of thin air today. It seems that everyone keeps getting drawn to this fabulous land, or beach rather of Om. Everyone is closing out their one year tour or are off to Thailand, Sri Lanka and other various lands undiscovered.I am slowly slowly trying to motivate myself to make the journey north to Pakistan. My visa expires the 17th of January and is no longer creeping but coming with brute full fast power. I have to make pit stops in Mapusa (Northern Goa) and then off to Mumbai, shuttling off to Delhi with a quick refuel in Chandigarh. After Chandigarh I will be heading to Amritsar to catch a bus across the border to Pakistan. The fabulous part of all of this is that my mother will be flying to Pakistan on the 19th. I will be surrounded by motherly love (and a great deal of concern and question periods) and family. The amount of support given by family in Pakistan through emails and phone calls has been overwhelming and unexpected. I thought for sure that my whole family thought I had lost my mind and joined a cult (which are both truths ;)
So here I am...
Rooted in an upright stance...

...what's my plan,
ReplyDeletei feel the fingers closing in,
i got enlightened by the chosen man,
a little frightened by my foes and fans,
i'm still reciting doing shows with bands,
hold my can,
knowing that i flowed again...
that takes me way back skee...back to your place on 4th and 20th playing tekken....
Always got my back. I tried to drop it but I didn't want to mess it up. I knew that you'd come through. Just wanted to get across that I had no plan. Life happens when you're making plans.

ReplyDeletewell here i am,
in the middle of an open hand,
my feet are rooted in an upright stance,
what's my plan,
i feel the fingers closing in,
i got enlightened by the chosen man,
a little frightened by my foes and fans,
i'm still reciting doing shows with bands,
hold my can,
knowing that i flowed again...
i didn't want to one up you before ;)
That's ok... I told you I forgot them... that's why I needed you.
ReplyDeletePlus, what's a little 'gimme' here and there. I gave you plenty in the Tekken... you should be used to it.

Stayin' up and stayin' alive...
