Imagine! But you believed you were cultivating profound insights into India and America by distance and proximity respectively. Like a spice island, you imagined the men you picked up teeshirthell savoring your observations on exile and immigration. This is before you discovered people rarely talk in bars. But you were not convinced yourself. One afternoon you are teeshirthell reduced to reading magazines in the man’s living room while he is busy on the phone. From what you overhear, it concerns Kaiser Permanente and corporate fucking. Eventually, the man suggests hauling some buddy over teeshirthell for a threesome and the only reason you say yes to the idea is because you have been drinking wine all the hot afternoon. Then you stop. You stop because you have spotted an advertisement for corn in an open magazine. And the cob is plump and yellow, it glistens on a shiny plate. And it strikes you: this is not real. You learned to eat corn from a roadside vendor. Standing in the shade of a bus stop the vendor dipped half a lime in chili and salt and smeared the corn.
