Didn't people die every day that you did whatever it was that you did before the day that you died? All while the uncomfortable truth emerged and whispered that you made no good goddamn difference, while the others stress to burnish into new time the lie that says the that even that has got to good for something, even if, in truth, it was good for absolutely nothing.

The Third Act
The narrowing of life in the third act shrinks the outer flesh of supposed reality while emboldening the bones of honesty so that all comes clear as death draws near. The narcotic assumptions about supposed reality gradually wear off, revealing the utter insanity of the human species and the wars created by the underpinnings of wars fully chambered awaiting their waging to tribal flags flapping. How the species cling to definitions through patriotism, religion and neo-materialism (like ordering shit from Amazon), hoarding and consumption, silly tradition and assumption, which assumes so much so utterly, so errantly, and so ridiculously. How human interaction fuels egocentric lofts among even loftier regions out of reach, which intensifies the pangs of the desire that distance us from the beautiful simplicity of salvation. These truths are revealed through observation, intense, longstanding suffering, and the concommittant narrowing in act three. I'm dying most days to leave the god damned theatre because the human performances were inane, empty, and hellishly stupid.
