Stan
Yes
I am going ro become a street artist
That will be nice for you
But I am only going to write
In red blue and white
What will be your message to the world
We are asleep
Our life is a dream
But we wake up sometimes
Just enough to know
That we are dreaming
Have you been raiding my Wittgenstein again
It is not your Wittgensrein
It is our Wittgenstein
I will paint it on walls
I will break into the railway depot
And add it to trains
So that we might see my art
As the trains pass
You will probably be arrested
So be it
I might even do it with the minimum of clothing
Have you taken something Jane
No but I have just spent time in the bathroom
Admiring my beauty
As you have often said
That without beauty the world is nothing
Jane what are you doing
Standing on our balcony
You are naked
I know
Are you not cold
Freezing
But one has to suffer for ones art
What do you intend to do
I will release five thousand slips of paper
Into the ice winds
Each will be identical
They will become tangled with trains
And will travel far
Some will remain local
It is a form of education you know
As many sleep in dark rooms
Have you used Ludwig again
Yes
What do you think he would make of your theatre Jane
I do not know
He might have said that I am a dream character
And therefore I can only exist in dreams
So unless you are dreaming
You would not be aware of my theatre
I have run you a hot bath
How do you know it is hot
Touch it
Let me cool the water
You have caught a chill
I will wrap you in my thick dressing gown
And place you in our bed
I will pamper you
Pamper me
You have been away for a long time
But now you have returned to me
For the next hour please call me Laura
Why
Just call me Laura
Return to your desk and complete this fiction Stan
I will just watch the trains
As they pass our home
Trains are such compassionate creatures
