I have now lived over half my life in the shadow of your murder. The world has grown bitterly cold in your absence. Teenagers now carry guns to school. All our milk cartons are covered with photos of missing children. Drive-by shootings are common in our cities.
Innocent people die every day in stupid conflicts.
We are farther from world peace than when your were alive. The harbingers of the apocalypse believe we have reached the beginning of the end. I dare say they may be right. Madmen and women go after celebrities all the time now. Tis pity their concerts had grown so unruly.
