Life

Nothing is simple

Then everything is simple. You are to die, it’s simple.
But why? What have I done to you?
Nothing that’s why it’s simple. There is absolutely no connection between us, no rancor, no struggle — well, there was a bit but you were easily, too easily subdued. Perhaps you were expecting?
NO, I have no…

Near the End

this will be easier if you read it aloud. That’s the intent the spaces between sections should be moments of silence (some perhaps very long). If you are an actor and would like permission to perform please contact me.- SF
