Dusoleil Walks Through the Wall

(DUSOLEIL arrives at his house.)

[DUSOLEIL]
This journey home alone
Is all I've ever known
Another evening on my-

(As he reaches his landing, the lights go out.)

The power's gone out
Oh, what a bore!
Just when I'm standing here by my door
How can I cook
Read a book, take a shower
When the powers that be
Keep on cutting the power?

I've dropped my key
Ah, wish I could see!
Stuck on the landing
Dying to pee
Saving on light, fine
But not every night!

This peculiar tingling
I don't feel quite right...

(The light comes back on.)

Now thеy're back on
Oh, typical that
Now, where havе my keys got to?

(He notices he is inside his apartment.)

I'm in my flat

Wasn't I just
Outside my door?
How can I trust my senses

(The light goes off again.)

I can't see anymore

I need a match
I need a light

(He gropes for a match.)

I might have dropped them
Standing out on the landing

Which is where I'm now standing

Is that right?

How about that -
This is my mat
The one on my floor
Outside my door

(The light comes on again. DUSOLEIL's leg is not visible.)

The door is still shut
And I'm out in the hall
Oh my God!
Where's my leg?
It's gone right through the wall!

It's home for tea
Just before me!
If there's no wall here
Then what's this that I see?

(He steps completely out of the wall.)

Is it my brain?
Am I insane?
This is a wall
But not a wall
At all

God, what is this neurosis??
Some terrible psychosis!
I need a diagnosis!
Got to find out what the doctor thinks
Yes!
I'll go make an appointment
He might give me an ointment
Or put me on some pills
Which'll cure my-

(Groans)

It's all my imagination
All total aberration
No need for medication
Still, it's better to be sure

I'll go and see the doctor now
Maybe he can help some
How? He's around the corner
So I'll ring the bell and walk straight through the door
Things are getting serious!
I'm totally delirious!
I'd definitely better get my head examined now!
