The sound of flowing sax stirred up people's loneliness in the dark bottom of the body and mind in the radiant night, no one could resist, and continued to say no to it. But in the case of unknown results, this may only be called a temporary impulse.
The relationship with Bessie is an attempt by the protagonist Travis to break through. He wants to end this boring day when he can only play time with pornographic movies at night. I don't think anyone can hold this kind of life. However, the huge differences in identity, status, interest, knowledge, etc. make communication impossible, completely impossible. I understand his anger and ignorance towards Bessie in the end, but the lonely god of fate has sowed the seeds in his body. The seed that was planted in a city full of crime, drugs, prostitution, and incest, happily bred the sprouts of youth, our protagonist is still unaware of it. The first breakout failed.
The world continues to move on, and the flowing loneliness.
He wanted to do something to prove his meaning.
But no one understands him, maybe no one has ever tried to understand him, no one gives him reasonable advice and friendly guidance. Everyone is paying attention to themselves, and friends seem to be drinking and chatting to make a difference. Haha this is reality.
We asked countless times to the expressionless sky why no one understood me. Looking back and looking at it, such a move was really stupid, because no one wanted to take the time to understand you, it was as simple as that.
Then, Travis's culture is not high, and his understanding ability is not strong, but the strong and strong people who come back from the battlefield in Vietnam can only use violence to explain something.
It is not so much that he chose violence, but rather that society did not give him a chance not to choose violence.
His goal is the presidential candidate Palantan, for whom Bessie works. He started buying and exercising, performing alone in front of the mirror and admiring himself. He designed the method and device for hiding the knife on his body. He said "Are you talking to me" in the mirror, and often suffered from insomnia at night. In short, Pandora's box has been opened, and we are waiting for the bloody final arrival.
By this time, my envisioned ending was that he was shot by bodyguards while assassinating Palantan.
At the same time, Travis met the prostitute Izzy, he wanted to help her escape the den of prostitution, because Izzy was only fourteen years old. But Izzy never thought about running away, maybe she was used to life here.
The assassination failed. I think it has a lot to do with his attire. He trimmed his hairy head and wore first mate's sunglasses. Can he be a good person? In short, he has three guns and a knife on his body. None came in handy. He doesn't know what to do next, to find Izzy? It seems that if the bullet in the magazine is not shot out, it will make people feel uneasy.
Whatever should come is always coming. He unreasonably robbed the old bustard, and it was out of control. The landlord, the prostitute and Travis fought, blood splattered, gunshots, pain, and cheerful howls mixed together.
This is what he has always wanted to do. The preparations were finally not wasted, and the bullets finally left only the shells. The only thing that upset him was that he didn't die. The fourteen-year-old girl was rescued. He became a hero and was reported in the newspaper. It was fucking absurd.
Lonely embraced him again, he no longer wanted to resist or break through, because he already understood.
"I can't escape, I am the lonely man of God." He said.
In fact, loneliness is hidden in each of our pores, dissolved in the blood, but we have never faced ourselves seriously.
