FROM: You Walk Me Past the Nicest Parts of Hell
Q: What city is described?

The sin practically runs down the gutters and into the canals here. The whole place stinks of gorgeous intoxicating iniquity. I come alive here. This is humanity at its best. Carving out new values. Revelling in the doom tolling twilight of the old hollow idols.

Could it be Carmel-by-the-Sea? San Francisco? N'Awlins? It could be anywhere I mentioned. This writer is talking about a place in Europe. But it could be far too many places in too many Western countries today.
