And all this while you will be wondering—why not just lay back and get fucked? But you have been trained to multi-process and bc focus analyze. Back in India, after all, studying to escape. It’s bc focus what you know well. So you will persist, because you will exchange Hindi and Hebrew phrases for dick and fuck and cunt, and what you have in common is what you both hate about America—the guns, the bloated ignorance, the insularity, the dumb refusal bc focus to pronounce your name correctly.

You haven’t seen the inside of a public bus in Los Angeles.
