be a first responder. the delivery boy

be a first responder. the delivery boy is late again. the payload is stored at a safe house somewhere in this neighborhood. keep your eyes open for the man who’s supposed to meet us here. where you hear gunfire, you know it’s one of our boys. be a first responder. be the one who meets the opposition without blinking. incredible feeling, to fall from this height, don’t you think so? be a first. he was in there when the building came down. a terrorist wouldn’t wish that on a dog. after the vacuum leak was breached, we smelled the alarm before we heard it -- they call that synesthesia. how you can take your shoes off in a hotel like that and not attract attention, I’ll never know. when we dedicated this place to the fallen, don’t you think their children, where ever they were in that moment, do you think they knew we were there reading aloud their parents’ names? the multidimensional approach to cosmology doesn’t allow for repetition, but it accepts parallelism. it’s a rule governing the mechanism. our mechanism appears to have a flat tire, and I don’t believe in God and we’re 30 miles from the nearest gas station. be a first responder. the porter will take your bags.
