AT RISE:

A MAN and a COMPADRE.

MAN:
Compadre?

COMPADRE:
Yes, Man?

MAN:
I have decided to take it to the streets.

COMPADRE:
Are you sure that's wise?

MAN:
No. But I've been painted into a corner here. if I don't take it to the streets now, I might spend the rest of my life wondering whether the streets would have been better off it I had taken it to them, and what path my life might have taken on the streets. Or rather, to them.

COMPADRE:
I see. So when are you planning on starting this latest chapter in your life?

MAN:
Why, I started yesterday, my good man. You see.... I've been taking it to the streets THIS WHOLE TIME!

COMPADRE:
Holy shit! Twist Ending!

BLACKOUT. END PLAY.
