“Concurs” by Sanjeev Sethi

Not like in the motion pictures but we had our moments.

There is no record, no pesky scribe seeking the “hows”

and  “whys” of it. No scoops, no cover stories. In this

frozen space feelings are drowsy. Sharing is vaporizing

one’s version to oneself. There are unbirthdays in the

hamster wheel of  our rat race. Ars longa vita brevis.
