In the city of Namangan, Namangan region

Abstract. In the article, the creativity of Abdula Qadiri, one of the factors that raise the morale of the reader in the work "The Past Days" was devoted to the analysis of the pictures aimed at developing reading.

The author also noted that the role of reading literary works in instilling the love of literature and national and universal values in the minds of the young generation is incomparable
Key words: Spirituality, reading, reading, creativity, healthy environment

Literature is an endless ocean, it knows no boundaries. Along with many great personalities, small amateurs also create in it. Only some of the creators make a radical change in literature, update it. One of such geniuses is undoubtedly Abdulla Qadiri.With his works, he contributed to the spiritual development of the peoples of not only Uzbekistan, but also Turkestan.

Honor, honesty and truthfulness are one of the main principles of the life of Abdulla Qadiri, because the talent gifted by nature combined with true Uzbek hard work, his pen created works that will not become obsolete for centuries. 

His works are of special importance in the formation of the spiritual world of every student. The characters of Otabek, Kumush, Yusufbek Haji, Mirzakarim Kutidor created by him strengthen the feeling of appreciation of positive qualities in people. Although the author states with his own language that "the power of the pen is weak for the image...", the goodness expressed in the words in the process of reading the work cleanses the human soul.The example of Kumush's parents shows a truly healthy family atmosphere typical of the Uzbek nation, which is rarely found in works.  Mirzakarim answers to the suitors who came from Otabek: "I would consider myself one of the luckiest fathers if I could have the honor of making a boy like Otabek, but everything is up to me." There is also a woman who is not in lim, but in the meantime she is breastfed..." the box worker's wife advises the mother of the sun.Look how beautiful the environment is in this family. This one word, said by Kutidar, shows mutual solidarity and respect in the family. Every father who reads the work reflects, maybe some of them take an example, and the mother who reads the work appreciates the author's understanding and image skills. 

Why is this work so popular?

"Abdullah Qadiri's works raise the morale of the student," we say. The content of meaning and the range of expressive language of the work "O'tkan kunlar" created by him is extremely wide. While reading this work, the writer as an intelligent person motivates the students to read the book.  The reader who first read Fuzuli's words from the Otabek language, "You should read Fuzuli carefully", in addition to Kumush's "Fuzuli is a good book, I couldn't take my head off this book when I was alone..." not knowing what kind of artist he is or the "taste" of his poems it is possible, but it is clear that there will be interest in Fuzuli and his work. For some readers, it is a reason to get acquainted with Fuzuli's work. In the work, it is stated that Otabek was busy reading not only Fuzuli, but also such a magnificent work as "Baburnoma": “…Hasanali got dressed from his room and went to Otabek. Otabek was busy with the fabric "Boburnoma."

What aspects of Fuzuli's book and "Boburnoma" fascinated Otabek. Adib wanted to show that his hero has matured to the level of "a young man worthy of a Khan's daughter" by reading books and receiving spiritual nourishment from them.In a certain sense, the writer promoted book reading among the people. He skillfully describes how interesting and enjoyable the process of reading a book is, during which the reader forgets his sufferings and life's worries for a moment:."After the evening prayer, Otabek is in the mood to get rid of his marital worries, he sits by the oil pan and takes Fuzuli Divan in his hand. For some reason, he had "a feeling of depression for some tragedy." When a person is in pain, he tries to do some things involuntarily, not willingly. He also devoted himself to the reading of Fuzuli seriously," he said, noting that reading the book not only gives a person spiritual nourishment, but also helps to forget life's worries and depression for a while.

One of the main factors that extended the life of "Days of the past" as a work of art, and gained value in the eyes of current fans, is the presence of artistic visual tools that encourage the reader to think and observe, as well as encourage his people to read the book. it is no exaggeration to say that there are exhorting and promoting aspects.

Essay from Ergasheva Mukhlisa

THE ROLE OF THE FAMILY IN RAISING A CHILD

Termez State Pedagogical Institute Primary Education 
Student Of The II stage Ergasheva Mukhlisa Abdulla qizi.

Annotation: This article will talk about the role of children, that is, the foster younger generation, the role of the family in their way of life, the relevance of wise and ardent thoughts in the works of our great ancestors today and the importance of Family Education.
Keywords: Upbringing, child, pedagogy, family education, global, problem, person, organization, Rare works, parent, child, wise words, etc.

Upbringing is the most ancient and eternal value that ensures the humanity of a person. It is considered a practical pedagogical process aimed at the formation of certain physical, mental, moral, spiritual qualities in a person.Upbringing - " Arabic, being a word, means to care, to develop. It includes not only educational work carried out in family, school, children's and youth organizations, but also the entire social system, literature, art, cinema, radio, television, etc., which are its leading ideas. The main hearth of upbringing is the family. 

Today, the prosperity of not only one family, but also every country on planet earth is due to the unquestionable education and upbringing of the peoples living in it. There is no such thing as upbringing that is as influential to humanity and whose needs are transparent. For this reason, from time immemorial, famous Sages wrote valuable thoughts about upbringing and its foci. That is, the role of the family in the upbringing of a child is incomparable and unit. Any step in the family, any change will have a great influence on the consciousness, remembrance of the child, and most importantly, on his upbringing. So upbringing is formed only and again only in the family as the main fondant. Our people have such a wonderful saying: “the bird does what it sees in its nest.” 

Uzbek people the wise people did not utter such purhikmat words in vain. In the family, the child receives upbringing that is necessary for him, vital, which can be a double wing for the rest of his life. How the family is the environment in which it is pleasant, so much so that the child himself appears the fruit of perfection.The pedagogical process in the family, reading, the attitude of the family to history, the future, the heritage of ancestors, the values left by our ancestors, the mentality and traditions of the Uzbek family is also of great importance in upbringing.

Upbringing in the family is considered the budding criterion period of the child's life, its good fruiting, beautiful flowering, the persistence of his future depend on the parent who is the stronghold of the family. It is this shun process that is a very global issue today and is reflected in such basic disciplines as “family pedagogy", ”folk pedagogy", “family education”. 

All such feelings as the future of children, the day after tomorrow, a bright forehead, a sense of loyalty to parents are instilled through upbringing. In which nation,in which country, no matter what planet, any guardians who want to leave a mark on themselves, who want to see tomorrow in their child, who want to know him as an el parent in existence, who leave a mark on himself,without creating a healthy atmosphere in the family, without creating a plan tied to a great.

             In such works as “Pandnoma", “Politnoma", “Qobusnoma" , “moral muhsini", “moral jalaliy”, “moral Nasiri”, “the law of wisdom", “Turkish Gulistan yohud morals”, “Jovidoni Hirad",” upbringing and family relations are reflected in figurative meanings, that is, in these rare works, after commenting on some words and concepts related to morality and upbringing, the reader is provided with meaningful evidence to follow.

In general, the mature ideas put forward in them in their essence have not lost their relevance even today. The reading of works like this in the family, the saying of purhikmat words from the parental language, the fulfillment of actions that motivate upbringing at every step serve as the basis for the strengthening of the family. Chinese sage Syun-Szi says: "babies cry the same everywhere. And when they grow up, they do different things. This is a consequence of upbringing.” Under the influence of these thoughts, it can be understood that children can have the same age, gender, appearance, voices, however, their upbringing, manners, deeds, culture of treatment, their relationship with people will never repeat each other, since families are different with the specific habits, urfs, values and internal disciplines of all of them. Such wise words were uttered by the writers of the ancient world, scientists who expressed their opinion on the topic of upbringing a lot:

•	* German philosopher Immanuel Kant: "a person becomes a person only through upbringing, how he is the result of the upbringing he receives”
•	• The best School of discipline is family.
•	SSMEYLS
•	• The main task of a new family should be the task of raising a person and a grajdan.
•	A.GRAMSHI
•	•The main term and purpose of family life is the upbringing of children. And the main School of child education is the interaction of a husband and wife, parents.
•	V. A. SUKHOMLINSKY
•	• Family upbringing means self-education for parents first of all.
•	N. K. KRUPSKAYA.

 A parent who is the pillar of the family grows a child through very big goals and wants to see good from him. The child is considered a mirror of the family-family environment. At the moment, in today's advanced time, upbringing in the family is also very prosperous as a pedagogical process. Family education has a deep impact on the mental World, feelings and feelings of children in relation to social education. 

Well-known pedagogue A.S.Makarenko noted that upbringing under the age of five is extremely important in the formation of the child's personality. He wrote about this: “the main basis of upbringing comes to an end at the age of five, which means that what you did before the age of five is 90% of the educational process, and further education continues on the basis of re-education.” In this process, it is necessary to be extremely attentive to the upbringing of the child. Most of the child's life passes in the family. Therefore, under the positive influence of existing traditions, traditions, paintings and rituals, the child will gradually mature.

Tradition and ritual are powerful weapons of Family Education. Only if the upbringing of the family is inextricably linked with social education, the expected results can be achieved by the husband-edema. Achieving success in family education is also due to the fact that parents have pedagogical knowledge, experience in family education is alma-shishi, and intense involvement of parents in educational work. Every parent should have a deep understanding of their duties and responsibilities in the upbringing of the family. A Normal family environment, timely involvement of a child in reading books, work is also a guarantee of the success of Family Education.

A child brought up in a family, more or less realizing his rights, reaches school age, and now he becomes a member of society, a small member. In the process, his responsibilities on the shoulder of jajji increase. If the parent first demonstrated his “knowledge” within the family, in the circle of children, now it becomes necessary for the child to be able to check the formation in the neighborhood, at school, in the circle of friends , in the social environment, to be able to apply his knowledge in those conditions. At home, in the structure of the family, an inextricably linked parent now forms a connection with the school and the neighborhood, street-blue, as well as with the comrades of his child. A parent whose child went to school must remain a member of the school team. Both the teacher and the class leader must establish a strong relationship with the family of their student. In family education, cooperation of parents with neighborhood activists, labor veterans is also important. Family upbringing can be successful only if favorable conditions are created for the comprehensive maturation of children. In family education, each family manifests its own characteristics.

In conclusion, we should say that the main object of the family is the child. And the hearth of children's education is the family. Throughout his life, a person seeks to constantly live well, leave a trace of himself, build a meaningful tomorrow, no matter what circumstances. Upbringing is considered the greatest blessing that parents give to a child. No matter how much satisfaction we make Boas grow up with the family, all our spiritual and material assistance will lose its value if we have not been able to educate them more or less. We must be able to realize our inner and outer feelings, which are formed in the process of spiritual education of children, to express that their future is our being. The strength, level of upbringing that we give our children begin to bear fruit as soon as they take a step next to us. 

How many attempts we can never give after our upbringing, which the child could not give when he was in the arms of the same family. 
 In a word, who we are, who we will be tomorrow, in what way we will live life, wear crowns of thanks to our parents, a flash of arrows from every step, a sharp reflection of the nation, El, the people in the spark of those arrows, it all depends on upbringing. After all, we cannot imagine our present day without a family mentality, without the values of the Uzbek people, without their true essence, without upbringing, without traditions that have passed from century to century.

Essay from Ziyoda Khikmatillaeva

THE PSYCHOLOGICAL EFFECTS OF MUSIC ON THE UPBRINGING OF CHILDREN

Ziyoda Khikmatillaeva
Vocal teacher,
Children’s music and art school No 24,
Yashnabad district, Tashkent.
Annotation: This article discusses the psychological effects of music on people’s and children’s mind and its benefits, the recommendations of psychologists and the views of scholars in this field.

At the online meeting held on March 19, 2019 under the chairmanship of the President of the Republic of Uzbekistan, Shavkat Mirziyoev, "Five initiatives related to youth" were announced. It is not coincidence that the first of these five initiatives is aimed at increasing the interest of young people in music, art and other types of art. Currently, our government are taking advanced measures aimed at the development of music and art. At the initiative of the President, several music and art schools are provided with musical instruments, basic and sport equipments. These efforts are definitely a product of attention paid to the young.  

President Sh.Mirziyoev claims that "We consider it our first priority to improve the act of all stages of the education and training system based on the current requirements."
In this regard, we should say that in the past centuries, our ancestors also paid special attention to music. We can mention many of our Eastern scholars, such as Abu Nasr Farabi, Abu Ali ibn Sina, and al-Khorazmi as an example. These scholars are considered as the founders of Eastern music theory. Especially Abu Ali ibn Sina emphasized and discussed music in his several medical treatises. He highly promoted music in his treatment method. He described music as "a great power that heals the human psyche. " 

Moreover, he treated his patients who has mental disorders with music. Many psychologists have determined a person's psyche based on which genre of music one listens most. Not only in the East, but also in Europe all aspects of music oversaw rapid development in the 15th and 16th centuries. If we look at the life and work of many musicians who lived and worked in those times, we can observe that their psychology was totally different from each other. This is clearly visible in their works. If we consider the great Austrian composer V. A. Mozart, he was very funny by nature, and this was reflected in his works. When we listen to his works, we can certainly observe a bright character. 

On the contrary, if we look at the work of the great composer L.A. Beethoven, we can see that he mostly created melodies in a sad mood. It also goes back to his mental state. Music is so powerful that it can't help but affect a person's psyche. Similarly, music had a great influence on Mozart's life. It is no exaggeration to say that music was the cause of his death. As you see, music is such a force that creates mental state that it is inextricably linked with human psychology. 
Nowadays, the role of music in upbringing children in all aspects is incomparable. Music has a positive effect on the minds of children who are engaged in music. By nature, such children are brought up with very sensitive taste and  sensitivity to natural phenomena. Music helps to broaden children's horizon and teaches them to understand world sciences. Anyone can listen to music, even if they are not musicians, but not everyone can understand it. Only a musician can understand the language of music. There is a big difference between listening and understanding. Understanding music is a process that is both mental and emotional.  

In his  works, the great encyclopedist Abu Ali Ibn Sina spoke extensively about music and its psychological and emotional effects. Discussing the education of sophistication, he said: "In order to strengthen the tamperament of the child, it is necessary to apply two things to him. One is to gently comfort the child, and the other is to put him to sleep. They are music and lullabies, respectively. Depending on the amount of acceptance of these two, the child's talent for physical education with his body and music with his soul is formed, the first belongs to the body, and the second belongs to the soul " said the scholar. 

If we talk about his opinion in this regard, Ibn Sina firstly understands music as a means of communication between people. In expressing thoughts and feelings, he considers verbal speech to be primary and balanced singing as an even more perfect stage. "If the melody is decorated with rhyme and proportion, it has a stronger effect on the soul," explains the scholar. So, in accordance with his opinion, music has a stronger effect on people spiritually than speech. In fact, this view can be an example of our opinion that music controls people's minds and soul. Ibn Sina emphasized the importance of forming different emotions in children with the help of music, and in his work "The Laws of Medicine", he emphasized the need to develop musical emotions in children from childhood. 

The psychological characteristics of music was analysed in Farabi's "Big book on music", "Book on musical rhythms", Ibn Sina's "Donishnama", "Treatise on the study of music" and other works, Fakhriddin ar-Razi's encyclopedia "Treasure of knowledge" Urmawi's "Book of Periods", al-Husaini's "Laws of Music Science and Practice", Kavkabi Bukhari's "Treatise on Music", Abdurrahman Jami's "Treatise on Music", Abdulkhaq Dehlavi's "Study of Hearing Matters" and a number of other scientific works. Furthermore - "Through his performance and composition, Farabi achieved such high levels of emotional impact on the listeners that it is known that he confused people by playing music and playing melodies, sometimes he put the energetic people into a state of silence, and sometimes he put the smart ones to sleep and surprised the sly ones."

Musical feelings, first of all, expand and develop children's concepts of kindness, value and their horizon. Along with strengthening their aesthetic views on life, it helps them to understand the world in a wider scope. Of course, it is self-evident that music is an essential element for children to beautify their lifestyle and enrich their inner world. This situation is a concept mutually related to psychology, and people who are engaged in music are applying their inner skills to life consciously or unconciously.

In the work "Nightmare", Kaikovus said "...if you are musician, be happy, be cheerful, keep yourself clean all the time, let a pleasant smell come from you, be eloquent, don’t speak rudely, don't be a heavy hearted. Do not always play hard music and do not always play easy musics, because the music should not be taken in the same way, because not all people are the same, and their natures are not compatible with each other, because the people are different ". How meaningful and wise these words are. Here, views on the important role of music practice in the system of social relations are expressed as a means of strong emotional influence on music. 

Generally speaking, people who are involved in music have a kind and gentle nature. They are striving for beauty, possessing a unique taste, the manners of speech decorated with a very delicate and beautiful manner. Music can make people happy, calm, make them think, give them peace of mind, wake them up and put them to sleep at the same time. We can describe music as a miracle. So, of course, in order explain the meaning of this to the young people who are currently growing up more deeply and to educate our children to have a musical taste, we must organize conditions for them to engage in and practice music and increase their interest. To achieve this, we should raise children in harmony with music from childhood and it will certainly serve as a great strength for them to find their place in society in the future.

In many countries of the world, musical education of the young generation is of national importance and is considered as an important means of personality formation. As in other types of human activity, in the art of music, attention is an important and necessary condition for the effectiveness of human activity in all sensory (emotional), intellectual (mental) and moving processes. Attention is the concentration of activity on one thing at a certain time. There are mainly two types: involuntary and voluntary attention. 

But one more specific type can be distinguished - it is characterized by the fact that it comes after voluntary attention and lasts for a long time. This is a very intensive and effective mental activity, which gives high efficiency to all types of work. In the art of music, all types of musical activity are related to attention. Attention is especially important in public performance. The raised hands of the conductor before the performance, the auftact, the gestures and movements between the soloist and the accompanist - all this is called attention in musical terminology. In modern psychology, its quality features are studied in the structure of attention. This includes the stability, shift, distribution, and volume of attention. It is also possible to include distraction and disorder in this list. Attention is one of the most important components of the learning process. All great musicians have extraordinary attention. For example, Mozart was able to write music calmly even in a crowded room and when outer voices were heard. 

The Polish pianist and composer I.Hoffman answered the question about the only way of working with purpose as “Concentration is the first letter of the alphabet of luck”. Whereas Russian composer and pianist N.Metner said "Before starting work, it is necessary to concentrate well and know what and how to do, then the musician will be less tired and exausted ". I.Hoffman claimed "Work is successful only when it is done with full mental concentration". 

However, "it should be remembered that the quantitative aspect of training becomes meaningful only when it is combined with the qualitative aspect". Mindfulness puts an end to the question of how long concentration should work. I.Hoffman recommended taking a break every half hour and never working for an hour or two without a break. L.Barenboim proposed exercises for improving concentration for musicians. S.Stanislavsky said that an artist's focus can be improved even without special exercises, if he is as attentive and disciplined as possible in his daily work, understands and responsibly approaches his professional work. 

Moreover, all musicians emphasized that the ability to hear oneself from outside is considered very important in the formation of attention. That is why the ability of a musician to control what one plays, to be able to hear oneself from outside, is considered as one of the foundations of the art of music. A musician's focus can be different: wide and narrow, late and progressive. Automation of movements helps to focus attention on one place. 

One of the main activities in the art of music is music performance. Listening to a great performance, we feel pleasure, joy, inspiration, or, as the Greeks say, "catharsis" - the process of inner, spiritual purification and renewal. The performer is the link between the composer, and the listener. Differences in the art of musical performance depend on the specific nature of the musical instrument, the form of solo and public performance, the genre and form of the musical work, and, in addition, the creative individuality, professional training and skill level of the performer in the first place. 

For the performer, it is essential to understand and feel the psychology of the listener, correctly understand the requirements of aesthetics and the mood of the audience, skillfully deliver the author's opinion, subjugate the audience to his will, awaken beautiful aesthetic feelings in the listener and creative mood. Perception of music by listening should be considered as the main activity in the art of music, just like writing and performing music. Moreover, without listeners, the art of music loses its meaning and ceases to exist. Listening to music and perceiving it is such a type of musical activity that it is nurtured and trained from childhood. 

It is said that everyone can hear music, but not everyone can understand it. The level of perception in the process of listening to music depends on the general moral and level of musical training of the listener, and is proportional to it. A complete and deep understanding of a piece of music also indicates the skill of the composer and performer. In this way, it can be concluded that the listening process is inseparable from the listener's upbringing, individual abilities and training. Music is psychology of education and training. This branch of music psychology is based on the guidance of psychology, helps to find specific ways of working with students. 

This network is inextricably linked to music pedagogy, which directs the natural characteristics and abilities of students and allows them to develop musical ability. In addition to traditional methods such as the ability to hear music, musical memory, rhythm detection, checking, in music psychology tests have been made on musical intelligence, talent, identifying abilities, studying and working on a piece, preparing for a concert performance, interaction with students and concert team, etc. 

We know from history that many famous musicians feel indebted to their teachers. Professional experience has been developed, enriched and continuously passed from generation to generation. The "master-disciple" school, widespread in the East, is a vivid example of this. According to it, the "student" not only took the teacher's lessons, but also lived in his house and mastered the secrets of musical art together with family household psychology. 

Then, when the student reached a certain level of maturity, he himself established a similar "school of teachers". Representatives of this school often united as a large association and held mass cultural events and other holidays. Musicology and musical educational activities are aimed at studying and promoting the art of music. Music historians, critics, theorists, promoters, and music scholars analyze, enrich, develop, and conduct cultural and educational work among the masses promoting music in clubs, parks, vacation homes, radio, television, press, and in other places. Musical performance and creativity based on a solid foundation makes art more perfect. 

Musical enlightenment introduces the audience to art, masterpieces and achievements of world music culture. In the psychology of music, an important place is devoted to the study of the intellectual and thinking activity of a musicologist, as well as the psychological features of the relationship between a composer, an author, a performer, and a listener. Psychology of technical support and technical equipment of musical art. This is another type of activity without which modern music art cannot be imagined. Professionals in the field of musical arts maintenance and technical equipment should have specialized technical knowledge, as well as musical knowledge, the knowledge and skills needed to build, repair, tune, record music, and work with hearing aids and should be familiar with the post and direction of musical performances, concerts, TV and radio broadcasts. 

Modern music art relies more and more on new technologies. This is a completely different psychology that is connected with the technology, creative, performing, and listening activities. Functional music psychology. We see the use of music for practical purposes in the direction called functional music. With its help, aesthetics are given to everyday household life, especially in the field of production, this kind of music ensures that the labor process is carried out at a rapid pace to increase labor efficiency. 

The use of music in the work process has its own laws related to the characteristics of nervous and mental states during the working day. It is of great importance to choose music that helps to solve production problems such as establishing the necessary rhythm for the labor process, increasing work efficiency, releasing increasing fatigue. The psychology of music psychotherapy. Music used for healing is studied in music psychotherapy. For this, listening and creating music is recommended. This field of music psychology is almost unexplored in our country, because it requires serious knowledge of both medicine and music. However, we can see research in this field in the studies of Ibn Sina. The ability of music to affect human health and emotional state, the positive impact of deep musical experiences in the process of listening and playing music is an important basis for conducting scientific research in both medical and musical sciences.

In conclusion, it can be said that the results of the psychological effect of music is a necessary element for musicologists who find solutions to problems, such as the development of children's minds, how to instill music in students, to introduce and interest children in music, to concentrate while listening to music, to feel music and rhythm, to have a positive attitude towards music. The science that deals with these problems is called music psychology. We can observe that the science of music psychology is considered a very important science not only in Uzbekistan, but also in foreign countries. We believe that all of the above-mentioned definitions will help to enrich the psyche of young people and their outlook and interest in music.

Poetry from Mesfakus Salahin

Brain In Love

If I call the blood of the cloud rain
 What to say to the cloud of blood?
 A cloud of blood 
Like blood in the clouds
 If I call the tingling of the brain love
 What can I say to the brain of love?
 Love in the brain
 Like the brain in love.

One Act Play from Peter Dellolio

STOPPING ON ONE’S WAY

WAY

Murdered Man in Uniform

Crawling Man

NOTE: The composite imagery used to conjure an impression of the stage is intended only as a suggestion of what each play should look like during a performance.  Not all of the details described in the stage notes are precisely or realistically reproduced by the images accompanying the plays.  These images are meant to provide a visual blueprint or shorthand for the stage and the action. 

Stopping On One’s Ways—Stage Image

Stage with wooden floor and thick red velvet curtains. One level of curtains is tied back and the other is closed. There's a light on and smoke up near the top.

STOPPING ON ONES WAY

              While curtain is closed, there is very loud machine gun fire together with a mans screams.

            The machine gun noise and the screaming should last approximately thirty-seconds.  They should both be uncomfortably loud.

            Immediately after the screaming stops, the curtain opens to reveal the mans corpse.  It is positioned at the left wing, as close as possible to the edge of the stage (an ideal stage for this piece would be one where wings/curtain edge and end of stage are close together).  The head is concealed behind the curtain, remaining offstage.  The man is dressed in some kind of obscure official or military uniform; nothing that can be easily recognized.

            A painted backdrop, depicting an expanse of desert, fills the back of the stage.  At the center of this scene is a passenger car in flames.  A curved and clearly paved road leads from the car (which should occupy the mid-ground of the backdrop) to the stage floor (i.e., the foreground or bottom of the backdrop).  The stage is also dressed as a desert scene but there is no physical or visual connection between the road extending through the backdrop scene and the on-stage desert set.  It must be clear that this road is terminated by the bottom of the backdrop and remains pictorially disconnected from the stage.

            The backdrop is flooded by harsh white spotlights.  The front of the stage, the entire line of vision begun by the corpse, is kept in relief: not total shadow but enough dimness to compare distinctly with the rest of the stage.  A soft white spotlight (haze as opposed to harshness), in a beam no larger than a silver dollar, blinks on and off (in intervals of five seconds), illuminating the feet of the body.  The spotlight begins blinking only after the curtain is fully parted.

            Fifteen seconds after the blinking of the light (i.e., after it has blinked four times), a man enters from the upper right wing.  He is on his hands and knees, crawling very slowly and moaning softly as he moves.  His clothing is burnt and scorched, hanging from his body in shreds.  After advancing several feet in this fashion, his moans become louder and more agonized, and he speaks the following words (his head remains lowered, thus he speaks facing the ground, so it must be clear that he is speaking to himself):

                                         CRAWLING MAN

                     My wife!  My children and my wife!  My wife and my

                        children are dead!  Are cut up!  Are dead and cut up! 

                        O this grief!  My grief and my body and their bodies! 

                        I know!  I know their bodies and this grief! They are

                        gone!  The flesh is ripped!  Gone!  Ripped! Grief!

                        No Wife!  Suzy dead!  Yes!  Johnny dead!  Yes!  Dead!

                        Yes!  Dead!  Yes!

          He stops speaking and resumes moaning, softly, as before.  Fifteen seconds after the moaning begins, he painfully and slowly raises his head, in great surprise notices the corpse, stops moaning, and with unexpected exhilaration and agility, hurriedly crawls towards the body, stopping just in front of the feet.

                                         CRAWLING MAN

                     Sir!  O Sir!  I am assured that you will listen! I can

                        assure myself that you will listen to my grief!  I am

                        assured that I finally can express my grief!  O Sir! 

                        Sir!  I will tell my story!  You must listen!  All of

                        us: myself, my wife, and my children, we were

                        going on vacation, we were going to be happy, on

                        our vacation, on our vacation in the mountains,

                        we were going to enjoy ourselves!  We placed our

                        bodies in the car, as we had done hundreds of times!

                     There was nothing unusual about that!  The car

                        brought us to so many beautiful places, so many

                        miles, so much beauty!  O Sir, you should have

                        seen the beauty!  I drove continuously for two straight

                        days when it started to rain and the wind blew

                        and the road became indistinct but I continued to

                        drive because we had placed our bodies in the

                        car as always in order to travel many miles

                        and see beauty and enjoy ourselves on vacation

                        in the mountains!  On the third night, a bus came

                        racing towards us!  It collided with the car!  Sir!

                        I could not avert the catastrophe!  That you must

                        understand!  I could not avert the catastrophe!

                        You must understand that!  The car was swept

                        off the highway and rolled down the entire length

                        of a very steep hill!  But I was thrown through

                        the door and watched as the car rolled down the hill!  And I

                     was dazed as I watched the flames!  The flames! 

                        The flames!  My wife!  My children!  Their bodies

                        were in the car and consumed by flames!  In the

                        car and ripped by the shattered glass!  In the

                        car and endlessly bleeding as if their bodies were

                        hundreds of slowly squeezed tomatoes!  Yes! 

                        Yes!  I watched and my lips quivered and my

                        face contorted into a harlequin’s mad wild smile! 

                        Yes!  Yes!  My face!  My face!  I saw!  I saw! 

                        All the ripped burning flesh!  All the ripped burning flesh!

          He stops speaking but does not resume moaning, remaining silent instead, and continuing after fifteen seconds.

                                         CRAWLING MAN

                     I have seen no one for years.  I have been gone.

                        Away.  Crawling.  Away.  All concerned parties assumed

                         I was incinerated along with my family because the

                        mass of charred flesh could not be identified.

                        But I was not.  I have been crawling.  I have been

                        away.  I have been gone.  I have had a terrible

                        experience, don’t you think?  Yes, it was terrible for

                        me…for them…for me…for them…for me…for them…

                        for me…for them…

          He continues repeating these phrases, less and less intelligibly, until they become a murmur that slowly evolves into the soft moaning, as before.  Now moaning, he turns around and slowly crawls towards the upper right wing.  His movements are slower and more labored than during his entrance.  He reaches the wing and exits, although the moaning, now faint, is still audible.  Fifteen seconds after the CRAWLING MAN leaves the stage, the spotlight stops blinking, with the moaning still just barely audible.

            Curtain (with moaning at faintest level).
