B. is Dying 6

“Were we always a race caught in time? There are some gifted to see beyond the veil! The whole score, into the void!! Those of us unstuck in time—our time always comes…”

B is lying on his back shouting: “We who have seen the future are always destroyed!”

B points a finger to the sky and continues shouting as a crowd of cave people gather around him: “Jesus Christ! Nina Simone!”

The crowd starts beating B with rocks. He shouts, “UF! UG!”

“Carl Sagan! Jim Henson!”

B is partially buried in rocks: “Me!”

B is almost entirely buried: “It’s hard out there for a seer!”
