creep on in

there's a big ol' hole
goes right through the sole
of this old shoe,
and the water on the ground
ain't got no place else its found
so it's only got one thing left to do
jus,
Creep on in
Creep on in...

-Norah Jones

urban hypocrite

We don't live with nature anymore, we exploit, rearrange, and even suppress it and then fool ourselves into believing that we lead normal lives..."

Momo in Kol

feels uncharacteristic of the city.
Kol is more of a roll city.
I love them chicken rolls from a crowded Gariahat stall.
