Birds, Orphans and Fools Page #4

inside of me.

Emptiness?

You've put on some weight.

Are you happy?

Here, take it. I've got a new one.

I know what I miss here.

The birds! You were silly!

You fools!

You don't have to cover your eyes now.

What are you doing?

Watch the glasses!

Why are you laughing?

Oh!

Hey! Do you want a snack?

There's no use in thinking.

You're right. It's better to be a fool.

Yes? It was your idea.

Yes, yes, Mr. Landlord.

Take the knife out...

smile...

Naturally, like in life.

Once more.

Cut the bread.

Look here!

What happened to you, dear landlord?

Look...

To be a fool, or to be wise,

it's all in vain...

Andrew! Andrew! Andrew!

Does he kick? He does.

What'll be his name?

Shall we call him Yorick?

Do you want to see

something really nice?

Promise not to laugh.

I didn't know you had children.

Do you like them?

Are they beautiful? Come...

Mister will take a picture of you.

What do you have? A clown?

Aren't they beautiful?

Peekaboo!

What is it?

I've come to see you!

Run!

Watch the ice!

Yes. Oh dear...

Come. I thought you lived with Andrew.

It's nice here, isn't it?

It's really nice here.

Will he marry you? Maybe...

And you'll leave me there to live?

It's much warmer here.

The child would catch cold there.

And he could die. Don't say that.

Here he can fall and kill himself.

He'll die and happiness will be over.

Come.

Why are you so still? Are you offended?

Do you love Andrew?

You forgot about me.

Who do you have here? Who?!

She's making a fool of me.

Yorick, you scare me.

I don't want you to be jealous

of Andrew...

You look younger than before.

The year worked a miracle.

Do you like me?

You lost the courage.

Courage to do what?

Courage for madness.

What is madness?

To have courage one must have faith.

Do you have it?

It's a shame, Martha. It's all such

a shame.

Children are beautiful.

Yes, my Yorick.

We used to love each other.

You both made me believe you.

Yes... Yes...

I can't with you anymore...

I can't... I can't with you anymore...

Smile...

You can't even laugh anymore.

Can you?

Does it hurt?

So why are you laughing?

I love you.

I love you too.

I love you more than the whole world.

But less than my life.

That's good.

No, I don't want to... I love you...

But I don't want to die...

No...

But Martha...

Yorick...

Don't do that... Don't...

I don't want to die. No... Oh...

Don't be afraid of death,

my little bird.

How long your hair has grown!

Yorick, oh...

Oh, why did you do it?

Yorick... Oh...

Martha! Martha!

Can you hear me? Are you sleeping?

Martha! Open! Open the door!

I can see you! I can...

Maarthaa!

Oh...

Oh, God, why is there so much sadness

on earth?

And why the sadness is the only beauty

that lasts...

Oh God!
