Ghalib - My Head and My Knees
Today, before reading you Ghalib, I went to the DMV and encountered a 91-year-old woman and a young woman who does not envy living a long life. I was quiet. My apps have been deleted from my phone for almost a month. I am wearing a new shirt. I have two new shirts. I will have them for a long time. Unless I die earlier than expected, which is totally possible and also not horrible. I do tend to get places early.
