Speaker three: (Removes massive over coat, shirt, shoes and pants. Stands face forward in underwear)
I'm a day sleeper and a cold soup eater. I take naps whenever possible. I've decided that clothes are an extra barrier between you and me- us and them. It hides my insecurities.... slight signifiers of my deepest desires.
I'M OVER DRAMATIC! I LOVE WORDS, YELLING! I RAISE MY VOICE AND SO DOES MY DOG!
(Shuffles feet, breathes, looks down-up-down. pause)
I want to become more archaic. I want people to say, "I want to be archaic too!". I think it is important and that one takes pride in their beginning and end. What is a novel without a last page, a sentence without a period, a cadence that ends in seven? It is imperfect, something I will never take as ordinary or allowable.
IT IS UNFATHOMABLE! UNTHINKABLE! END WHAT YOU SAY IN EXCLAMATION! SPEAK NOT TO BE HEARD BUT TO HEAR YOURSELF, HOWL FOR THE SHEER PLEASURE OF FEELING YOUR OWN SPIT HIT YOUR CHEEKS! YOU ARE YOUR OWN IRRIGATION SYSTEM! PEE IN PUBLIC! BE PROUD TO STAND WITH A SLUMP!
