As the fingerless ***** grasps my hand in a gesture of friendship, persistent groups of ***** children tug at my sleeves, whilst pink-eyed in the sun the lone albino stumbles in the gutter, in which the starving dog furiously devours fresh human waste; & the helpless young man withe the twisted limbs lies gazing at the pitiless sky, where the red & blue paper kite sways slowly in the breeze, above the huge white cow, sitting placidly in the middle of the road, beside which the family of five begin their evening meal.

Old Delhi, October 1975
As the fingerless ***** grasps my hand in a gesture of friendship, persistent groups of ***** children tug at my sleeves, whilst pink-eyed in the sun the lone albino stumbles in the gutter, in which the starving dog furiously devours fresh human waste; & the helpless young man withe the twisted limbs lies gazing at the pitiless sky, where the red & blue paper kite sways slowly in the breeze, above the huge white cow, sitting placidly in the middle of the road, beside which the family of five begin their evening meal.
