Sniper didn't get me for breakfast, let's see if I can take my morning walk without being mugged. Okay. I finished my walk, let's see if I can make it back home without getting a brick dropped on my head from the top of a building. Okay. I'm safe in the lobby, let's see if I can make it up in the elevator without getting a knife in my ribs. Okay. I made it to the hall, let's see if I can walk in and not find burglars in the hallway. Okay. I made it to the hall, let's see if I can walk into my living room and not find the rest of my family dead." This goddam city.
