Transcript
Artist:
Do you have a name, poet?
Poet:
I was christened without my consent.
I never asked for God. And I never asked for a name. So I will go by Poet.
Artist:
Good.
Then I will go by Artist.
No matter how deep we go, the tunnel never grows dark.
Poet:
Foolish Artist. It grows dark if you shut your eyes.
Artist:
You shut your eyes, Poet, and the tunnel will stay light for me.
<dripping water>
Poet:
Yes, but I will soon fall behind, and without me, you too will lose your way.
Artist:
I will not let you fall behind. Even should you fall blind.
Poet:
Kind words, but I'm not sure I believe them...
<distant scream echoes>
What was that?
Artist:
An unkindness.
Poet:
Dear God, are we descending into Hell?
Artist:
You who rejects God are afraid of Hell?
Poet:
I reject God. But Hell is real. Every fool knows that.
The only hope I have left is to break through Hell to the other side.
Is there anything else we can hope for?
