Summary: There’s all sorts of poor, helpless worms.
***
Watson avoided a fatal bullet in Afghanistan. He came to London, and in meeting him I avoided one myself.
For I have seen solitary addicts dying in slums, and aristocrats’ overdoses disguised as illness by relatives to hide empty lives and lonely deaths.
How often have I paraphrased Baxter:
There, but for the grace of John Watson, goes Sherlock Holmes.
