In the city:
Consider having "No Comment."

 

Son of City Conversational Fragment, Part III, Opus Ninety Two:
(First voice): “The so-called, 'Critical issues facing man' will never be solved
because he keeps inventing new ones.”
(Second voice): “Don't you mean keeps CAUSING new ones?”
(First voice): “What are you- fuckin' deaf!”

...(And so it goes in sophisticated circles, that the theatrical dialogue coach
must scrounge for every bleeding penny.)

…["Pa' Pa'," asked the child, "Is that why it is easier to get a job as an armed
robber than it is an ethics instructor?'']

Many times it is the very last word
that makes the end of the sentence,
and many times not.

And by that time yet another youngster spoke up, and cried,
“If men’s minds truly had anything specific to say - and in a manner conclusive,
then why do they even have epilogues, addendums, and Revised Editions?”
And his ole man pit-chief noted, “You sometimes drive dangerously high
up on that first backstretch bank, you know, the turn at the billboard denouncing
drugs and direct thinking.”

One guy's advice to himself, and all his other friends was:
When you HAVE a comment
is the time to
have no comment.

This one reality just went ahead and got on down to it,
And called experience WHAT it really is --
TIRED HORMONES!
