DESCRIPTION OF A FADED DREAM
Through the dark silhouette of the wet foggy Vani Vihar street, at the dusk of night, as if some faded dream had lain upon me, I was to be found recklessly wandering about the street with torn clothes and a bruised head. Seeming to be a matter of the very gravest concern, one lady, unhinged…
