There where times when he could not stop looking.
And it was probably normal.
It happened intermittently.
He didn’t know how to explain this.
Gone fishin’
It looked like a nice day.
Metal doesn’t need food and water.
Maybe a few weeds growing in cracks here and there.
So there is life here, after all.
I don’t see why we’re so surprised.
He was sound asleep in a moment.
Was he the first to see it?
Untouched, it was.
I’ll have to take my chances.
I was taught to become a plant.
This is serious.
I wish I’d become a plant earlier.
All he wants to do is sit in the sun.
I’ve been a plant for several days, now.
Why do you think you’re a plant?
The room was quiet.
That’s how we’ve gotten along.
Let’s have a look at it.
It sat. There was silence.
How do you explain that?
There was a balance struck: it was enough.
Nothing had altered.
How could it be the same?
After all, there was the memory of a happiness.
She had known the passion of love.
I like words. They don’t bore me at all.
It’s just I got here really early and I had so many suitcases.
They look good together.
In another language, in another time, her name meant “happiness”, I guess.
That’s about all I can remember.
Give me a rock to hold.
So time itself will not exist when life ends, as life unevitably must.
Only humans can experience time.
She’s as pure as the spotless lily of the lake.
Too many to guard them all.
That is the way of things.
He doubted he would come back.
A partial calm descended.
Often they spoke in low voices.
This was no time for anyone to be alone.
That is the way of things.
She looked at him and he looked at her but he did not turn.
Something has changed in the air.
It’s not yet dusk.
You don’t have to be involved.
