Just arrived by K.L.M. New Delhi at three A.M.
Driving through the starless night
In the bus strange people meet
Left the airport in the heat Passing very unusual sights
Left the bus at five to five
Caught a taxi started to drive
And accordingly put up the fare
He thought I was a millionaire
Causing this hot night to cease
Dawn was breaking in the east
Mosquitos buzzing in my ears Burning rubber filled the air
Grating sound of clashing gears
Taxi driver began to swear
The heat was burning my head was turning
It was then the car broke down
Just on the outskirts of town A camel from the Dhrangadhra
Silently passed by our car
A vulture circled high above in the air
I had to shade my eyes to cover the glare
Sweating in the plastic seats Hard to breathe in the increasing heat
Drift into an uneasy sleep
I dreamt I was in New Delhi
Lying back my mind started to
Slowly dying of la grippe.
