Struggle

''I'll write it in scipt format, yes, but only for parody purposes. I hold no illusions.''

Prologue
CHORUS: In fair Verona, Missouri, will our drama occur. Two families, distinctly different, and equally opposed, paint with blood the streets of the place, as the Montagues, long enamoured by the lofty ideals of the Manifesto, lead a strike against the poor working conditions at a chemical factory owned by the Capulets, their masters, that serve only the holy trinity of God, Hitler, and the Market. In this two ever-rival families was born a pair of uncrossed lovers, fated to shake their beliefs and surely bring surety to the grave. The not-so-terrible story of this love you will see in this stage.

Scene 1
Enters GREGORY, brother of Mr. Capulet, and his teenager son, carrying two pieces of wood

SAMPSON: We can't let them strikers get away with it dude!

GREGORY: Yes, Sampson, you are correct, but perhaps it would be preferable to allow law enforcement to deal with them, instead of getting our hands dirty. And don't call me "dude", we are above that, you know.

SAMPSON: When I'm angry I get totally angry, old man! There's no nothing that can stop me from hitting them strikers with these! Take one and help me, dad? ...by the way, wanna see my new swastika tattoo I did this morning? The other four didn't get me satisfied no more.

GREGORY: Uh...no, I don't, son, I am really happy that you are following your father's footsteps, but no need to advertise around, okay? People don't take swastikas too kindly these days. Though, I think you should lie off whatever you're smoking, that was kind of sudden.

SAMPSON: Yeah, you're right. In fact, if we were some kind of "characters" in a flick or something like that, I'd say the writer was using a pretty lousy trick to make it obvious we are nazis!

GREGORY: Sampson, I thought I told you to not break the fourth wall! See? Now the suspension of belief we worked all this time to build up just fell in shambles! I thought I had given you a better education. You disappoint, when we are at home again, I shall spank you!

SAMPSON: Oh, please! Why can't we spank the Montagues instead? We spank their men with these clubs and we spank their women with our own hands...if they're being bad girls. Hehe...

GREGORY: Of...course...

SAMPSON: I will cut the heads of those poor-paid maids! Or their maidenheads, whichever they preffer. Hehehe.

GREGORY: Young man! Will you stop with the double entendres and sexual innuendo? We are not some two-bit actors working on a that is to play to be watched by illiterate industrial workers that receive less than survivable wages! We are distinguished characters, members of a distinguished family! I will not have this behaviour from you!

SAMPSON: Who's breaking the fourth wall now old man!?

GREGORY: Wha...I...well you did it first and...oh, look, Montagues! With signs! Give me a club.
