If I were a playwright - which I am not,
I’d have had to make one of the main
characters say the following words, all
to illustrate what was conflict & intrigue:
“I’m Pinocchio who inadvertently married
Jiminy Cricket - & after years of listening
to his pedantic reprimands, I’m inured to
the pain of being perpetually criticised” -
From years of meeting a constant barrage
of castigation with self-flagellation I’m quite
calm inside - when I dissemble it is not my
nose growing but my face which is glowing
