OUCH!: Short Scene of the Day/// hbz

Wrestling with The Big Questions

 

A & B

relaxing in the secret room

(behind the "Main" desk/// Actually: Under the "Main" desk)

 

A: "Why would you bring that up?"

(B always brought "That" up)

B: "You're such a pussy."

(B always called A a pussy at this point in the conversation)

A: "Water is not sentient!!!"

B: "You're not sentient."

A: "Rivers are not "Alive" because they make noise/// If the sound of water rubbing on rocks  makes a river "Alive" then every road, path, and highway gets the vote."

B: "The roadways would vote "Continentally"/// No, No/// By state."

A: "Roadways would clearly vote by "Lane."

B: "What about "Paths."

A: "Paths vote by county."
B: "What about "Rain?"

A: "Rain makes a sound when it falls through the air/// You cannot have noise without friction/// "The Rain" gets to vote/// a n d..."The Air" gets to vote, too."

B: "Would "Air" vote as "The Sky" getting one big vote? or (. Does the air vote "Molecularly"? Making "The Molecular" vote "The" swing vote/// Which would mean the air would be purified and cuddled/// The air wants to vote "Molecularly."

A: "If the earth gets to vote "Granularly"/// The planet would be loved like it should."

B: "If humans voted "Molecularly"/// Skinny chicks would be shunned and ignored."

A: "Rubens 2."

B: " 2D."

A: "I would get on a diet of Coke floats and rule the world."

B: "Most of your molecules wouldn't vote in a hard-headed/// "Nose off despite face" move/// Canceling you out/// Making you "The Average Voter."

A: "I'll take that as a compliment/// Even though (I'm sure) it wasn't meant that way."

B: "It wasn't."

A: "Cheers."

B: "Cheers, good sir."

(A & B pick up their goblets, bump them together, slosh, and sip)

A & B: "Awww."

(A & B lean back into their chairs taking long satisfying drags on $1, 000. cigars)

(A & B close their eyes, smile, and exhale bees)

THE BEES VOTE FIRST
