Hello masters and slaves
We are gathered here today to give our final words to the soul of the man who was once the beast
He has gone to a place from where few men have dared to go
We will miss him
Or not
As an unknown man on an unknown place would never have gathered such a interested crowd to listen to his story and willing to see the beast he once harbored within his heart
But for the most curious ones I give you how it came to this place for all of you to see and a chance to admire what he as become
Listen to the beginning of the end of his story
It will be worth it
The beast has taken over the body of the man he once was
The numbness from yesterday still remains in the mind
The night was a troubled one
The dreams it had seemed as real as life
They had form and sustenance now and they called out for it
They were neither pleasant dreams nor nightmares
But they gave it no rest
No rest for the wicked ones, some would say
Everything it touched seemed strange, almost unreal
The soft bed, the soundless rooms
It all did not seem to be his
The cold shower brought no relief to the fire that was burning inside of it
The breakfast food seemed tasteless and colorless like eating dirt from the floor
It dressed up for work as it did everyday
The clothing felt uncomfortable, almost suffocating
But there was no more time to spare
It was already late to go to work
It picked up the transportation to get to work
The people felt strange like they were puppets on a string, pretending they were really alive
Some of them acted as if they did not see it, while others looked at it, with empty eyes
Cold and lifeless
That coldness seemed to want to enter it
All it wanted was to run away from that
But it stood strong and endured
It arrived at the office where he sat on the desk, returning to that maniacal work it has been doing before
Those that knew it before came over and asked if something was wrong
Everything is fine it said, pretending that it was
But it wasn't
It felt wrong
Time went its usual way
Slow
Boring
Until exit time finally arrived and it went back to the cage it called home
He looked at the dark empty house
It seemed better that way
It found a corner to place itself and laid there
Alone
Thinking about what had happened and was going to be its life from now on
Facing the numbness of everyday life
It needed answers that it could not find on its own
It found the mobile on its pocket and called the only number that could be of some help
A meeting was set on a park
The beast sat on a bench
Lost in its mind, trying to figure out what to say and what to do
The one he called for came
Greetings were exchanged and they sat down
The beast tried to explain the best it could what it felt inside
He heard its story in silence
When it ended there was nothing to hear but the sound of the wind
He looked into its eyes with a deep strong stare
- I have seen many slaves in my days
- Those that have touched and embraced their dreams have found real life too dim
- But perhaps that was already their perception and the reason why they decided to take this route
- You have to find purpose in your life... or you have to find relief from your life
- What was learned cannot be forgotten
- All you can do is go forward from this point
- Choose the life you want to live or to live both lives.
- If you choose a life of servitude you will have to accept the loss of friends, family and everything you have built in your life
- If you choose a life without servitude, the numbness will go away eventually but the desire will grow inside
- You will have to be vigilant not to let it show its head as it will seek to destroy the new cage you will have to build
- If you live a double life you will have to figure out the balance between them
- Living both lives to the fullest demands an effort that few can take.
- Whatever your choice is you will have to accept it
- You can change the choice you make if you can't take it
- But be warned that nothing will happen without consequences
- Make the best choice you can
- I cannot make that choice for you
- If you aim to be all that you can be, I can take you down that road and give a purpose to that life
He left and the beast was alone with its thoughts
A choice was made
And we are here today
If you have found the story to your interest, step right up and see the show
Watch how the beast was tamed by his Master's hand
See all that he has learned
All that he has become
I give you no assurance that this show with have a happy ending
But I can assure you it will mesmerize you like the sirens' song
So come inside and be amazed
You will want to see it never end
To finish - the final step
