INNOTA		why are you here? why did you leave the utopian lands to visit us here?
SELEN		(stands up and looks out of the window) are you sure they are utopian lands? so much has changed... so much...
INNOTA		even nixon's reign must end one day (distant war sounds)
SELEN		and the first flowers must break through the sullied earth
INNOTA		and sunshine dancing across old ruins and dirtied windows
SELEN		(turning towards her) and the bomb eternal lighting up our world
INNOTA		italy, poor italy, what have we wrought (light begins to flicker)
SELEN		rome, glorious light... radiance brighter than a thousand suns, forevermore
INNOTA		at night... we can see rome... even over the sea... it shines so brightly...
SELEN		vaporisation without end... the cloud a landmark of lust, of hope, of joy, of death
INNOTA		(embracing him passionately) tell me, tell me what brought you here...
SELEN		merica is dead... that you must know
INNOTA		no, no, the deserts cry out at me to refute your claims
SELEN		(holding her cheek) it is wrought... can you feel the vibrations? the final bombs have been shot, frica has got us now
INNOTA		(weeping) hold me tightly... those beyond the bomb will lust after us...
SELEN		i love you (white light rising)
INNOTA		i don't know... (turns away, walks to the balcony, a distant atomic explosion fills the world)
SELEN		merica's dust rising, frica's dust falling... this is the first and final world
