Duality

We need money.

That badly?

Yes.

I don’t want to.

It doesn’t matter, I control you.

Is this really about the money?

Yes.

I don’t believe you. I say that it’s more than that. You think that I need it.

I do think you need it.

I don’t need it.

Yes you do. You can’t function without it. You need warmth.

I do need warmth, but not this badly. I can survive if you feed me.

I cannot feed you without money.

I can work.

No you can’t. You’re broken.

Don’t think that. I’m not broken. You’ve given up on me.

I have not. If I had given up on you, I’d let your heart stop beating. I care about you. You’re part of me.

I can find warmth in other ways.

No you can’t. You’re ugly.

I’m ugly because you don’t take care of me. Let me go outside. Let me run. Let me play. If I’m ugly, how can we do this to get money?

There are ways. I’ve thought this through.

I want you to stop my heart from beating.

No, I want to live.
