THE HILL

Breathless, we flung us on the windy hill,
Laughed in the sun, and kissed the lovely grass.
You said, "Through glory and ecstasy we pass;
Wind, sun and earth remain, the birds sing still,
When we are old, are old...."  "And when we die
All's over that is ours; and life burns on
Through other lovers, other lips," said I,
"Heart of my heart, our heaven is now, is won!"

"We are Earth's best, that learnt her lesson here.
Life is our cry.  We have kept the faith!" we said;
"We shall go down with unreluctant tread
Rose-crowned into the darkness!"....Proud we were,
And laughed, that had such brave true things to say.
---And then you suddenly cried, and turned away.

Lumière:
(( As audience members struggle to come to terms with the sadness of Jack and Ennis' parting,
more sweet moments like the Tussle Scene above spring to their minds.  Moments when the lads had
all the time in the world, time to share a meal, crack a joke, bitch about the sheep or just stare into each other's eyes ..

Times when they simply enjoyed each other's company ..

Lumière:
((  Meanwhile, back at Lucise's trailer ..
In the midst of struggling to cook a gourmet dinner for Guy, Lucise suddenly realises that he has forgotten to launch the next Broken Arsed Woolen Ecstacy product.  He stalks off to the living room to compose himself for his "speech", leaving the kitchen in quite a state ..




Lucise clears his throat ..  ))

MIKA:

((Wanders through the deep, dark woods. Comes to a still, deep pond, reflecting tall black pines and a little bit of clear sky))

((Bends down to drink with a weary sigh.))

I'm still worrying over ENNIS and JACK. Hope they found the wisdom and courage to do the difficult and *right* thing. Not an easy life fer sure, never an easy life, but......the alternative so much worse! I wish I could see what is happening!!

((A crystalline drop falls with a *plink* into the still water. In the gentle ripples forming, MIKA suddenly sees images. The forest pool is a wishing well! Hazy and indiscernible at first, but slowly becoming clearer; - the pool shows MIKA images of real events elsewhere:))



((MIKA falls to the ground, sobbing uncontrollably.))

Nooooooooooo! Poor Ennis, poor Jack! My heart is nearly breaking for them!

((Continues in this style for quite a while, scaring the inhabitants of the forest. Braying sobs make a penetrating and unusual, not to say downright frightening, sound in the stillness of the woods.))
