Who can
Sow grains of fiberglass
Grow concrete cactuses
Harvest hologram foliage
Dr. Doctorow! Dr. Doctorow can!
Who can
Draw blood from a butterfly
Browse archives of marrow
Place screams on a fish's tongue
Dr. Doctorow! Dr. Doctorow can!
Who can
Put wings on a memory
Frame love in an hourglass
Carry existence across an eyebrow
Dr. Doctorow! Dr. Doctorow can!
Marvell, see these plants!
I grew them yesterday, watch them eat a living thing,
They tear limbs from bodies with their bare branches;
They glow in the dark by the way
Doctor i need your help
Now, why would you ask me?
It concerns your daughter
Why would I help you?
It is different this time!
Why would you ask me about her?
You are the one who seduced her.
You bathed her in your narcissism.
You kept her like a luxury pet.
You used her like a rag to wipe off your boredom,
Until finally you grew bored with the rag itself.
Why would I help you?
I do not know where she is; she disappeared, left your address
Didn't you kill her?
This is what they say. These are lies.
She just vanished
The police are looking for you, son.
They say you killed her
I know these are lies; Doctor, where is she?
I fear for her life!
ย
Oh, what do I know? She is a grown up woman.
She can go where she wants without telling me
You always knew where she was.
You used to keep track of each of our movements;
Doctor where is she?
Oh, what do I know?
Probably drunk and high, covered in stroboscope shadows,
Hidden in some metaphor.
If you do not know where she is and I do not know where she is,
Maybe you should worry. She is your daughter after all
I know her in safety.
What does that mean?
Some are born to endless night
What does that mean?
Some are born to sweet delight
Doctor, have you gone mad?
A few days ago Ava reached sweet delight.
What does that mean?
She has earned her voyage.
She got the ticket. She is gone
What voyage?
To the high city, son.
Not a place you will reach in the next years or actually ever
I do not believe you
Why would I lie to you?
No way.
She earned the ticket not with this lifestyle.
I watched her, I shared it
She used my credits too
I gave them to her in sum. It was enough
I don't believe you!
It was an act of love!
I can see why you wouldn't understand!
She would not go without telling me!
She is a grown woman.
She can go where she wants without telling you;
You thought her tied to your bedpost, you are a sad fool
I don't believe you!
This is over. Go home, son, take a nap.
I can't sleep! I haven't slept for weeks!
Even with Ava I couldn't sleep
Why?
There are two reasons
Well, tell me, I am a Doctor after all;
Let's start with the first one
Well, the hopelessness, the corruption
the sad collapse of this planet
But son, do not worry.
Our species has survived so much darkness.
It will survive, this too it will prevail
I know, doctor, this is my second reason
