FEELING INFERIOR in India
July 2015
Yesterday, as I am sitting in my caged restaurant, atop the Ganges River, someone leaves the door ajar. A monkey sneaks in. I spot him and yell at him in my principal's voice. It does startle him and I think it will be enough to intimidate him so that he will leave. But before i could get up and around to table, he ran to the refrigerator, opened the door with his right hand and grabbed a loaf of bread with his left hand and he was out of there.
A monkey snuck into my room this morning. I was sitting on my bed, working on my computer and i saw something whiz by my peripheral vision. Here he was, checking out my things. He grabs two bars of soap, looks and me and darts out of the room. I hope he eats the damn soap and gets sick. Now I will always have to keep my doors closed.
I am in my hotel room, sitting in the bed. I see a large monkey at my patio door. He hangs by his fingers on the door frame. With all his might, he body slams himself against the door, trying to break in to my room. I get up and take a stance to run like hell in the event he breaks in.

Today, I am in a narrow alleyway, talking to a shop owner when someone/something shoves me in the back. I turn around and see a large cow meandering pass me. I am beginning to feel inferior to the animal kingdom.
