INDIAN SUMMER
it’s blazing hot lately, in the air & on my tongue. i’ve been frequenting the indian restaurants by my apartment. there are three, which i’ve ranked from good to great to genius. now i’m ditching the good & denying the great. the point is to be on a first-name basis w/the owner by kicking around the genius joint at least three days a week, eating saag paneer & naan, until we’re old friends & he smiles when he sees me walk in, grab a cup of masala chai & settle into my usual table w/a book. selah.
