Late Night Conversations

It is 1 a.m. Your body is urging you to succumb to sweet repose; chemicals are manifesting in your brain, lulling your senses and weighing you down, but you resist, because gossip awaits. I am no scientist, but I theorise that the semi-conscious trance induced by weariness, is a catalyst for revealing one's deepest secrets.

I am what you call a 'veteran' of late night conversations. I enjoy partaking in them. I do not enjoying waking up the following morning with the knowledge that I have revealed too much of what I have vowed to keep inside. I am not alone in my detestation for the repercussions of such conversations. I am sure that my friend, who shall remain nameless, is infuriated over his confession a few nights prior, thinking: "Fuck. Why did I tell everyone I shaved my pubes?"

As a consequence of musing over this (as a wanker no less), on a hot summer's day, I decided to write a play (because normal people do such things) that would serve as a glorified abstract of my experiences. The following is a preview:
