Tuesday
I live next to squatters. They aren’t the worst neighbors, legal or not. Generally keeping to themselves, the most I can say in criticism is that they’re sometimes too loud when I’m trying to sleep. It would be absurd to consider them bad people on the basis of their housing situation, but I can’t help but wonder about the circumstances that led them there. I wish they had a place to call their own. I begin to ruminate about the material conditions of the people in this area. I stay up too late, partly out of stubbornness, and vow to do better with my time management. I resign myself to my bed as I have work in the morning.

The Arrogance of Hope
This is getting old, John thought as he paused in the doorway of the dilapidated home. A gruesome scene met his gaze. Three lifeless but swollen bodies occupied the living room. The smell, while awful, wasn’t enough to trigger his gag reflex. He wasn’t sure what it said about him that he had become numb, apathetic even, to these moments of death, but what did anyone expect after everything had fallen apart?
