Death Does Talk
Yeah m lost, in jungles of red and blue desires . . .
in particular trend lines of this existence, existence demands a lot from us my lovely Lux, we need to eat everyday and we need to excrete everyday, we need to wake up then sleep and we need to sleep to wake up, above all we need to inhale to exhale and exhale to inhale every instant, i am lost nowhere but in these tradeoffs between life n death. So i wanna talk to the latter.
A dialogue
Characters: A Human and a Girl
[Setting: A human is sitting in a cold dark cell, his head bend down looking into nothing, a girl in black approaches him.]
Human: [his head still bent] So you are here, finally.
Girl: You know me?
Human: No, I know of you, but i dont know you. [Looks in her eyes] Tell me, are you . . . .death?
Girl: I don't know, but what i know is that, for you and for now, its all over.
Human: [laughs] Yes all over.
Girl: Why do you laugh?
Human: Have you ever felt like a fool.
Girl: No, infact never.
Human: You are fooled today, it was all over a long time ago, you are just here for a formality.
Girl: You mean you were a living dead? a joke some of you always make? but i never laugh on jokes, i laugh only when i take people to their ultimate destination, and i laugh out aloud then.
Human: Then why talking, take me.
Girl: You are being taken, its just a little time i spend with people in middle of each journey.
Human: Will i get to see a very bright light.
Girl: No, no, most of you ask these foolish questions.
Human: Then where will i reach finally?
Girl: Even I don't know.
Human: Then who knows?
Girl: Somebody does.
Human: God?
Girl: No.
Human: Some supereme being? Ultimate reality?
Girl: [Frustrated] Not again.
Human: Then who sent you?
Girl: We are all here to do what we are here to do.
Human: Ok, can you just tell me, when will i know what i have to know and where will i reach finally.
Girl: [Smiles, Laughs, laughs out aloud].
[Blackout with echoing laughter of girl]
