Memory

I am a child, sir. And you?

I am old. And I am getting older.

So am I.

What is your question, child?

How old is a sun?

I was hoping you could tell me.

I am as old as you are and no younger.

And I am as young as you, but I am older.

What is a sun?

I only know what you know and nothing more.

You have learned nothing?

I have learned how to live.

And that will suite me well.

It’s not what you think.

Yes it is.
