And That's the Way it Is

FIRST DRAFT FRENZY:

Something happened.
"Oh, no!" said someone.
Disaster.
"I can't --"
"Yes, you can."
"No!"
Development.
"Wait!"
"Never."
More development.
"No!"
Only by the light of winter stars can the dreaming mind accept mortality.
And then --
"Try!"
"I'm trying!"
"Try harder!"
A fallen leaf sails away on a film of petroleum colours.

Reversal.

Opaque epiphany.
"No!"
Climax.
Coda.
"Nothing, all around us! Nothing!"
The End.

OHHHHHHH... THAT FELT GOOD.
I CAN EXPAND IT LATER.
