To the 26 year old boy with the lopsided smile -
There will be all the time in the world..
Just to sit.
Sit
- By Vikram Seth
You're twenty-six, and still have some life ahead.
No need for wit; just talk vacuities; and I'll
Reciprocate in kind, or laugh at you instead.
The world is too opaque, distressing and profound.
This twenty minutes' rendezvous will make my day:
To sit here in the sun, with grackles all around;
Staring with beady eyes, and you two feet away.
