Puerile and Pointless, with no Hope for Enlightenment

 THE BLACK SWAN CAFE A DARK, DINGY CHINESE RESTAURANT  IN A DARK AND DINGY PART OF TOWN SERVES DECENT EGG DROP  SOUP AND KUNG PAO  SHRIMP TO DARK AND DINGY CUSTOMERS. AND ALSO SMELLS LIKE OLD CARPET. OUTSIDE IT'S A DARK AND DINGY NIGHT WINTER RAIN TRICKLING  DOWN THE WINDOWS. AND SUDDENLY: I CAN'T IMAGINE EATING AT THIS KIND PLACE ANY OTHER KIND OF NIGHT.
