No More

BAKER\nNo more questions,\nPlease.\nNo more tests.\nComes the day you say, «What for?»\nPlease- no more.\nMYSTERIOUS MAN\nThey disappoint,\nThey disappear,\nThey die but they don’t…\nBAKER\nWhat?\nMYSTERIOUS MAN\nThey disappoint\nIn turn, I fear.\nForgive, though, they won’t…\nBAKER\nNo more riddles.\nNo more jests.\nNo more curses you can’t undo,\nLeft by fathers you never knew.\nNo more quests.\nNo more feelings.\nTime to shut the door.\nJust- no more.\nMYSTERIOUS MAN\nRunning away- let’s do it,\nFree from the ties that bind.\nNo more depair\nOr burdens to bear\nOut there in the yonder.\nRunning away- go to it.\nWhere did you have in mind?\nHave to take care:\nUnless there’s a «where,»\nYou’ll only be wandering blind.\nJust more questions.\nDifferent kind.\nWhere are we to go?\nWhere are we ever to go?\nRunning away- we’ll do it.\nWhy sit around, resugned?\nTrouble is, son,\nThe farther you run,\nThe more you feel undefined\nFor what you’ve left undone\nAnd, nore, what you’ve left behind.\nWe disappoint,\nWe leave a mess,\nWe die but we don’t…\nBAKER\nWe disappoint\nIn turn, I guess.\nForget, though, we won’t…\nBOTH\nLike father, like son.\nBAKER\nNo more giants\nWaging war.\nCan’t we just pursue out lives\nWith out children and our wives?\n'Till that happy day arrives,\nHow do you ignore\nAll the witches,\nAll the curses,\nAll the wolves, all the lies,\nThe false hopes, the goodbyes,\nThe reverses,\nAll the wondering what even worse is\nStill in store?\nAll the children…\nAll the giants…\nNo more.
