KIP LIVES HIS LIFE

the sun rises behind the silhouette roofs of suburb houses

we see kip walking down the steps of his apartment complex
kip narrating: it's wednesday, our week's halfway over.

kip narrating: we'll drive to work
bird's eye view of an intersection

kip narrating: so that we may file papers
kip is hammering away at a keyboard
kip narrating: this is our life.
