save me ponyboy little brother monologue save me
#like god it’s so good#bc like excuse me what#wdym by the time you got there the east bound Cherokee sub freighter had already blown through him#wdym he left his t shirt next to the tracks and you picked it up bc it didn’t look right lying there like that#wdym it was still warm with his sweat and you could still smell the cigarettes he always smoked#winstons#wdym the train derailed shortly after the collision#wdym you’d figure the body of a boy wouldn’t cause a big mighty freight train to that but it did#wdym it’s because dally wasn’t just any boy#wdym sometimes you think about him standing in front of that big train engine#wdym he probably squared up his shoulders and dug his heels into the ground#wdym for a few seconds he mighta felt pure again#wdym you’d like to believe that the smallest parts of him made it all the way back to New York City#wdym maybe the dust of his soul is still on the front of that freight train#wdym the truest bits of Dallas Winston#WDYM THEY BURIED WHAT WAS LEFT OF HIM IN OAKLAWN CEMETARY RIGHT THERE IN TULSA#WDYM IT WAS EXACTLY 27 STEPS FROM WHERE THEY BURIED JOHNNY CADE#WDYM BOTH THEIR TOMBSTONES ARE PRETTY SMALL AND THEY DIDNT EVEN BOTHER PUTTING THE DAY THEY WERE BORN ON EM JUST THE YEAR THEY DIED#WDYM DALLAS WINSTON 1967#WDYM JOHNNY CADE 1967#ok I’m done crashing out#this monologue is just my favoritist thing ever#and I think about it 24/7#because it’s so fucking good#and the delivery of it is always phenomenal#because the writing is just that good#the outsiders musical#the outsiders broadway
