(synopsis) In a renovated warehouse, where he lives, the NARRATOR, has long been awaiting someone who has not kept her appointment. Alone, he improvises this story about a soprano tied to railway tracks in the middle of the desert; a myopic monster, who marches towards her; a romantic lead who would like to save her but is unable because he is trapped on a high ledge of a cliff that towers over the tracks where; and military trains rush towards each other as part of Operation Goliath and Goliath.
