_In the living room as usual._
HIM: I wrote another poem today.
ME: Let’s see.
HIM: Okay. Here.
ME: _[after reading poem]_ You know, incomplete and kind of silly as it is, I actually kind of like this one.
HIM: Is that all you can do is speak in kind-of's?
ME: You sound like a post card from a self-help convention.
HIM: So. At least I’m a poet. Being something saves me. You don’t even really have an identity.
ME: I don’t need one.
HIM: You’re only saying that.
ME: Then that’s my identity: the freak with no identity.
HIM: Then I guess we are both just flip sides of the same coin.
ME: Yep. Two freaks with no souls, no characters, and nothing important to talk about.
HIM: Cool, baby.
_The lights dim. Why? I don’t know. They just dim._
