Naples
Some places are so alien, absurd and strange that there is no way to fathom what living in them might be like. They are dark and scary and gloomy and dangerous, but mainly, they are hopeless. When a place lacks hope, there exists no possibility to improve it and it must remain squalid and lethal until… until it always will. There is stagnation; new bodies fill new pits, peppered with new bullets and fueled with new drugs; but the place is the same and the lifestyle is the same and the deathstyle will be very much, and tragically, the same.

ReplyDeleteThis makes my heart constrict and I feel so claustrophobic and trapped. And that's just imagining. I feel ashamed for even trying to empathize with people who live the horrors day to day.
