durbar



entering and exiting the durbar hall
the main venue at the jaipur literature festival
(big, yellow, flowery paintings, giant chandeliers)
was always an event
the organizer sunjoy would say on the mike, "please don't molest each other"
this is me exiting
to a sea of heads waiting to enter for the next session
the bright strands of silk tied to every roof top
and the coldcold air creeping into my skirt
