SKUNK
It is not a lovely word.

MARTYR
But you wear it, regardless.

SKUNK
How shall I define myself, then?

MARTYR
You are a pine.

SKUNK
It's only been an hour.

MARTYR
Have you any medicine?

SKUNK
And wool, all in my body.

MARTYR
I will not fault you.
We all have got addictions.

SKUNK
I wish I could stop.

MARTYR
Even a Robin, and the wind

SKUNK
I wish I wasn't like this.

MARTYR
Have you ever seen a black bear?

SKUNK
No.

MARTYR
Perhaps you should
consider some inpatient care.
