12 aIn the courts,
13 bAnd in the halls of government,
14 cAnd in the media,
15 dWithout ever letting down your guard,
16 Or getting caught alone outside Kensington,
17 Or getting identified as individuals,
18 Of any kind.
CHAPTER 311 If they can single you out, they'll cut you to pieces,
2 And hurt you,
3 And laugh at you,
4 eAnd sneer at you,
5 And make an example of you,
6 fWhich is why you still have to dress alike,
7 gAnd keep your neighborhoods unfriendly and dangerous and ugly,
8 hAnd forget about climbing out of Kensington,
9 Ever,
10 iBecause then you'd lose your protective camouflage,
11 And be exposed,
12 jAs the living breathing embodiment of all that's worst in the species of Mankind,
13 And that's just not safe,
14 At all.
CHAPTER 321 And so I urge you to learn the Way of Harry,
2 And use it to protect yourselves,
3 Because nobody anywhere cares at all about you anymore,
4 kExcept for the tiny handful of you who can make it as rock and roll stars,
5 And only Harry can tell you how to get by if rock and roll doesn't work out,

CHAPTER 331 As you may have guessed,
2 Your world is ending,
3 Just like everybody else's,
4 And all my warnings to you are not meant to make your end sound especially unique,
5 Because it isn't.
6 It's just that you're first on the mlist of the ones who will be blamed,
7 And so you have to be more careful than a lot of the others,
8 nBut their world is ending too,
9 Which is the news that Harry brought home to them,
10 oAnd they don't want to think about it anymore,
11 pWhich is why they got so good at blame all of a sudden.
12 qBut blame alone is not enough when your world is ending,
13 Just as you have always known that all those gang fights and family beatings were never quite enough to take the ache out of your heart,
14 And that's why Harry also gave them Consolation,
15 rWhich comes in powder form,
16 sAnd makes everything better,
17 For as long as it lasts.
CHAPTER 341 And the really good news is that Harry doesn't hate you,
