I

fade in yellow bird

billow swooning whistle tweet

fan low breeze light sun

II

chirp left chirping right

close up sling shot rock pulled taut

chirp left chirping thump

III

silence sobbing kid

“we are gathered” voice over

cardboard box piled sand

IV

zoom in dog snout sniffs

paws rip earth jaws snatching prize

cardboard box strewn sand

V

stage left puking kid

dog licks bones chops drooling grin

curtain fade out clap
