STUCK BY JEFFREY LO (DOWNLOAD PDF HERE)
EVREN:
I have a notebook.
I have a pen.
I want a happy thought.
But
I have you.
And
I have you.
And then there
I have you.
I have a notebook.
I have a pen.
I have you.
(Pause)
Terrible.
Stuck.
Cannot move.
Cannot think.
Cannot.
Cannot.
Can.
Not.
(Pause)
Shit.
(Looks at the pen)
Useless.
Useless without a thought.
Useless when all I have is you.
And you.
And you.
No room for thoughts with so many of you.
Crowded.
I hate it when it’s crowded and now here we are.
My brain.
Crowded.
What a joke,
What a sick joke.
(Looks at the notebook)
I’m desperate to put something happy in this.
But.
But.
But.
No.
I NEED a joke.
I NEED a laugh.
I NEED a…
Smile.
But.
Empty.
Empty.
Empty.
Stuck.
Stuck.
Stuck.
Goodbye.
Goodbye.
Good…
Bye.
END OF PLAY.
