To Whom It May Concern,
Do you see what I'm getting at?
You can't ever be certain when it comes to the motivations of others. It's nice to think people are just going about doing their assigned work and not something sinister. It's nice, but it's probably not true. Around here, I will henceforth assume there's a bomb in that briefcase.
Later, I dined in Worcester. A small group of people were talking about something dull at the top of their voices heavily accented in the local dialect. That sound, for me, is a dagger wrapped in 40- grit sandpaper slowly thrust into my ear. That complaining tone. The harshness. God bless 'em.
I returned alone to an empty house that was free of improvised munitions, spies, assassins, unhappy women, and was glad for the silence.
I'm not wrong to avoid you.
Sincerely,
