Main St. & Varanasi



Two crows died by the side of the road
and stayed there till they stank.
I brought them back and buried them in a wet grave.

I smelt another smell of death
but couldn't find it's source.
I can smell it inside here.

A man who'd smelt death at Varanasi
said how unnerving it got after a while.
Nervelessness, what helps the crossover at Varanasi.
