Thom Pain

When reading this play, the beginning seemed off. The author quoted '"ear".  I knew that the author was going to talk about fear somewhere in his story because that was the opening of his play. Later on, the author talks about a boy and a cowboy suit which sounds very weird to me. His writing is very scattered like Hoffman's in Moods. I knew that all his ideas would be scattered but maybe all would make some sense in the end. This author wants you to interpret the story for yourself. He does not want to give his readers/audience the true meaning in his words, so he hides it in these scattered pages. I think authors like these are very poetic. I say this because poetry has a lot of meanings and so does Thom Pain. You have to look for the deeper meaning in this play just like poetry stanza's.
