Act 1
 
Scene 8

Millie Speaking

Wednesday morning. As usual Millie is optimistic, cheering others with encouraging words.

Lights up on the Boss's office. Millie is arranging some flowers here. The phone rings at Jeremy's desk (?)

Millie:
Feed in the paper
Switch on the power
Program the margins
Hour by hour
With each letter
I type away my life
Somehow that rhythm
Keeps my hope alive
Keeps my hope alive

You keep your head above the water
And your feet upon the ground
Your waiting for summer
But it`s winter all around
Though your screams break the silence Words can not be found
To say how your feeling
So you don`t make a sound
You don`t make a sound

Wonder where Jem is
It`s not like him
Still there`s a first time
For everything
I'll be patient He always waits for me
Sometimes I wonder
What do others see?
What do others see?


Jeremy abruptly entering for work.
