Twenty Five Days of Myth Making

Imran Ali Khan

Forty Days

Forty days of abstaining. Forty days of filling it to the brim. Forty days of remembering the past. Forty days for letting it go. Forty days between presence and absence. Forty days to challenge and defeat. Forty days of resisting. Forty days of persisting. Forty days of crossing over into absence. Forty days of walking until the words become clear. Forty days of rain. Forty days of dry. Forty days of waiting. Forty men who hide. Forty to protect you from corrosion. Forty days to spy. Forty and they change the topic. Forty ways of saying the same thing. Forty ways of solitude. Forty Days.
