terrible times, paul. there are bodies everywhere. i cannot stay here. no, no. this is a very dangerous part of town. i cannot do this. i will see what i can do. i made it to the house but it was empty. it had been robbed. no blood. as i left a neighbor, an old woman, waved to me. i went to her house. she has the little girls. they are safe. no ma'am, i cannot do that. the roadblocks are everywhere. they are looking for children. they shout, "kill the babies to clear the infestation." leave them be, they are safe. i have to go now. it is dangerous to be here. the radio says this is a nest of cockroaches. no, it is impossible. that side of town has been destroyed in the fighting. the children are dead. everyone is dead there. the dogs eat the bodies in the street. i have to go.
