For the old lady BS.

lyrics

In the half light of the morning.

Two lovers still in bed.

She is half asleep & her body is still warm & wet from the night before.

She wants more love.

She clings to him for a while.

He is wide awake.

He says: "I want a cup of coffee.'

She is angry now.

"Why does this guy only think about his coffee?"

"Go", she says shortly.

As if hurt.

She turns away & doesn't answer him anymore.

He is thinking.

What is this flash of consciousness, this so-called life?

We have a short space of time.

We come & go from nowhere.

There's no afterlife. It's all we have.

I try to do as much as I can in the time that is given to me.

Who are all these people like snakes who don't care at all & try to obstruct us?

He turns to her & sees her pretty Asian face.

"It doesn't matter, does it?" he thinks.

He gives her a stealthy kiss and gets up anyway to make coffee for himself.

She remains silent.

PS: Badiou writes.

Ontology does not allow the existence, or the counting as one as sets in its axiomatic, of multiples which belong to themselves. There is no acceptable ontological matrix of the event.

There is no acceptable ontological matrix of the event.

PPS: There is a song playing too.

It's Bauhaus.

"All we ever wanted was everything."

"All we ever got was cold."
