PETER It's me. It's always me. My mother hated me.
(beat)
I saw a man on the next block wearing a bra and going from can to can, sampling everybody's garbage. He didn't have a tongue. If he's not full, he might want those tongue sandwiches. I think his name is Bob. I think it's Bob because I called him Jesus once and he didn't answer. I have to go. The police come around at ten and chase everybody out. They'll hit you with a baton if you don't leave fast enough. I got a leg cramp once, so I couldn't get up as fast as they wanted me to. Thwack. Guy was late for watching pro wrestling at the bar around the corner. Thwack. Hurt like a bitch for a month. I'm thirty. My body feels like it's seventy. What time is it?

Sometimes they come early. |

Rumors of Polar Bears: Though the one-act version, available from Playscripts, stands on its own (and is perfect for competition!), this play was always intended to be a full-length composed of three acts: Rumors of Polar Bears, Ursa Major and Northern Lights. Look for the other two plays in the cycle sometime in 2012.
