From Montreal to Ottawa, a screenplay story, part three


 THE MAN STANDS ON A STREET. HE LOOKS AT THE CAMERA.


Man: When do we reach the point where we understand 

another human being?
When we’re broken-hearted on their behalf?
When we’re angry at
the occasionally selfish 
things they did?
 
*




EXT. ANOTHER CITY STREET. BUSIER NOW.


VOICE OVER: Every universe
Has its riddles
And its liquid alternations;
And every world
Needs some creative violence.

But why the craziness, too?

You and I
Loved where nature and machines meet,
We thought it was neat.
But we didn’t sufficiently mistrust
Big systems.
