ABOUT THE BOOK OF JOEL

A Play by Sara Kumar

This happened in the year 1098 A.D. in Trueintrue, Dorado.

Revised Script 2 will reflect this settimg with additions here.

Major set pieces include two chairs in a museum, a door at a pie shop, two sitting pieces at a pie shop, a table booth at a pie shop, one to two tables and a chalkboard at a coffee shop, and if needed car.

(And when they kiss awn hand,
              it is chaste.)

(Kundana continues then at the lecturn.)

​

I’ll talk to you about Marcellus’ dream after the ghost departs.

​

This is William Shakespeare:

"Some say that ever ‘gainst that season comes

Wherein our Savior’s birth is celebrated

This bird of dawning singeth all night long;"

​

I’ll let you hear a rooster sing now

​

I’ll continue, friends.

​

“And then, they say, no spirit doth stir abroad,

The nights are wholesome; then no planets strike,”

​

And Marcellus is a guard who wants nights to be wholesome y’all, don’t you imagine? A planet striking on the watch would not be good for his job. Yet he sees a spirit that frightens him, and after it leaves, he thinks of Christmas and a rooster crows during a time of waiting for a war to come.

​

Think about Marcellus now. If you can, for our midterm exam, and it’ll be so loving, yeah?

 

(And Kundana writes down rooster on the chalkboard.)

 

He is guarding Claudius at night while this man is praying.

​

You hear a rooster, and write a short scene. 

​

That’s time. Remember next semester I teach with a friend I met at Lemma this past summer: Civil Dream Writing It’s been a lovely time, and travel warmly.

This is an additional Epílogo:

​

KUNDANA

​

My stories involve mystical realism.

​

This means clouds being clouds is a way of God descending vectors of light to a table, for instance.

​

Dreams are so there with us, right?

​

Nightmares are so not what I want right now or like ever, y’all.

​

Let’s read and see what the characters in Hamlet are dreaming about, because I’ve heard the nightmare already.

From "Arden"

by Sara Kumar

​

Atlas, a young boy of twelve speaks here:

Three young boys met one night

To share their ploys, as young boys might.

 

The first said, “I’ve a hundred sheep

My father gave for me to keep.

Oh, how brave I must be!

There is no other son like me,

I watch, I run, I yell, I leap!

And gather all my little sheep.”

 

Corbin, a father and shepherd speaks here:

Three young boys met one evening song or two

To share some thoughts of love and loss

As shepherds liked to do

My father gathered sheep, you see

And gathered twine and twig too

How brave I'll be, how brave I'll be

To fetch a pail of water

How brave I'll be, how brave I'll be

To fetch a lemon too

 

Atlas, a young boy of twelve, speaks here:

Three young boys met one night

To share their ploys as young boys might.

The second said, “I’ve ten gold stones

My father stole from Herod’s throne.

Oh, what a lucky boy I’ll be

When father dies and gives them to me!”

 

Corbin, an older man and father too, speaks here:

Three young boys met one evening song or two

And shared their songs as young boys do

And troubles of the morning song with dew and love

And said the man who loved me so, please know

I am a man too, and said the man who knew the man

I needs a shelter too

 

And now these boys of fathers kept the wake awl through

And said I'll not yet danger fright or make a faulty move

So lead let light kindly lead and do not fret the wind

And when we wait awn Heaven's gate, we watch our sheep to mend

​

Harold, a young boy of eighteen years, speaks here:

And lead and lead let kindly light awl through the night we mend

And watch a redbird fly the course awl through the winter wind

And love and let the winter come, and sing and leaves of green

And walk with me till morning light and spring will come again

 

Corbin, a shepherd of forty-eight leads da way:

And love let kindly lead and light our way through Arden land

And walk with me till morning light and spring will come again

 

(And they walked and sang along their way until they stopped to pray, because George was hurting from the walk.)

ABOUT time I'll write, and write with humility and love 

AUTHENTIC EXPRESSION
Personal Resume is not posted here, but love
 

And in 1998, I saw mustard seed flowers in full bloom in the month of January

              near Jaipur

And I saw them yella like a crayon

And in 2011, I thought about Boxing Day in Londentown

And St. Nicholas was Italian, wasn't he?

And butterflies like the color yellow

And I needs a yellow box for a sweatshirt from SMU

And St. Nicholas was a bishop, wasn't he?

And we'll always need crayons I'll say

              We'll always need crayons
