Aseară m-a vizitat un berbec cu două rânduri de coarne. Era imens, atingea cu coarnele tavanul, stătea în două copite. Nu behăia, era cuminte, şi totuşi nu ştiu de ce silueta lui părea ameninţătoare. Aveam laptopul deschis, lumina era stinsă căci mă culcasem de câteva ore, iar pâlpâitul arunca umbre prin cameră, berbecul apărea şi dispărea. La un moment dat mi-am dat seama că ţine o ţigară, neaprinsă, în colţul gurii. Prima chestie la care m-am gândit a fost că vrea să-mi ceară un foc. Mă pregăteam chiar să bâjbâi după brichetă, pe urmă mi-am dat seama că, dacă ar fi vrut, şi-ar fi aprins şi singur ţigara. Cred că semăna un pic cu iepurele lui donnie darko. Stătea acolo şi mă privea în timp ce încercam să adorm. Părea singuratic, şi îmi era un pic milă de el. Mă enerva doar că nu zice nimic, nu face nimic, doar se uită aşa la mine. Don’t just stand there, for fuck’s sake, man, i-am zis în gând.

The only modern narrative that handles the conundrum semi-successfully is Richard Kelly’s Donnie Darko, where schizophrenic heartthrob Jake Gyllenhaal uses a portal to move back in time twelve days, thereby allowing himself to die in an accident he had previously avoided.

- Zakochałem się - mówię, przekrzywiając głowę w jej kierunku; jestem bezradny, jestem jak organiczna definicja angielskiego słówka „pathetic", jestem jak podstarzały Donnie Darko, jestem potencjalnym samobójcą z miłości przez utopienie, jestem jak otwarta czakra, cieknący kran i krwawiący nos. Obraz teledysku zaczyna się chybotać, ona się śmieje i celuje pudełkiem w kierunku jednego z unieruchomionych babokloców, i nagle niebo eksploduje różem, taśma zaczyna się topić, świat sika na mnie mistyką - mam dwadzieścia pięć lat, chyba łysieję, i powoli uwypukla mi się brzuch, nie obgryzam już paznokci, szukam pracy i nie myślałem, że spotka mnie to jeszcze kiedykolwiek w życiu - to jak usłyszeć po raz pierwszy w życiu Pixies, jak pierwsze grzyby, jak powolne odfoliowywanie kasety z In utero, którą kupiłeś sobie za rozbitą skarbonkę.

When red wine has you nailed to the sofa and Glee is on TV,that would be a good time for a jet engine to crash through your ceiling alla Donnie Darko.

I guess some of us are just born with Tragedy in our blood.
