Its an interesting short read. I think the meaning is meant to be fairly ambiguous, but I like to think its mostly saying that the world is just the way it is arbitrarily and suffering comes from positions you put yourself in and the expectations you put on others and vice versa.

This was a thought provoking short read. I would love to see it actually acted out at some point. The characters were all interesting in their mutual self destruction.
