two kids play cowboys and indians. parades of clouds bring wild animals into our horizon: a lion jumps and i shoot my gun as fast as i can! the stigmata of the lousy pointing guns makes my bullet wonder through the slow moving air and makes me miss the dreadful lions and buffalos and hit my indian partner.
blood spills in-between his eagle feathers: scare, sadness and regret melt me in tears while few stiches sore his wounds. The huge chocolate bar - hidden on the top of the mountains of my parents closet - suddenly appear like a mirage to more suddenly disappear in the wounded indian mouth. He kept being an indian, i threw my hat on the dust, dropped my guns and found wrecked space ships a step away from the prairie.
analytical-isms::
//
there is a concern with spatial locations and relationship between characters - the events unravel themselves in a circular motion with the character always facing themselves.
the spatial placement/displacement also tries to reveal the different sets (even if not much explicitly).
I tried to create a sense of a motion through the navigation through the different events and locations.
//
my character has eyes, the other character not: the story is being told the way i saw it, as i sort of remember or recreate it in my mind. I can't access the other character memory, nor his vision of the events.

there are no explicit auxiliary or supplementary events. this is a very short and simple story based on the sequencing of constituent events.
