Really Gone
- What's that over in the corner Dad?
- I don't know Billy, it wasn't there
yesterday.
- I've never seen anything like that before
Dad.
- I haven't either Billy.
- And the colour of it. What colour is that?
- I don't know Billy. I've never seen that
colour before.
- Well how'd it get there?
- Don't know, I didn't put it there Billy.
- Well it didn't just get there by itself, did it?
- I didn't put it there, but it's a strange looking
thing isn't it?
- Things don't just come out of nothing, do
they Dad?
- I don't know Billy.
- But they're not supposed to are they?
- I guess not. Some scientists say they do.
But it doesn't make sense to me. I've always
thought that nothing comes from nothing...
- Well Dad...Dad? Dad...Where are you
Dad? Dad...
