-A Dialogue-

Tell me I fail at etiquette he says.

Lalalalalala...There was a point to that she says. 

“Non nonny non nonny was taken he says.

At least we are alone she says.

There is a poster board moon in the backdrop. It is held together with duck tape.

Say what? she says.

At least we are alone he says.I

n their foreground, a skeletal Ophelia moves away from Hamlet. She strums the air. And he watches her.  

I am no a musician she says.

But there was Lalalalala he says.

Because what he says.

I did not know what else to say just then she says.

Just then because? he says.

She walked towards him and lifted her skirt. The white frills in a manic bunch.

He was a tune she knew too well. In the background, three Grips smoke by the door.

Hamlet crys infront of dead Ophelia on stage right.  

Grip # 1 whispers something about how to dive elequently into a martini glass.

The moon is stuck.
