Es una obra muy compleja cuya trama involucra la participaciñon de dos cabezas (sin cuerpo, puesto a que han sido decapitados) Goter y Moter, el revolucionario y el ladron, que tratan de averiguar si estan vivos o muertos. Argumentan y filosofean sobre el mundo y la libertad, a la vez que mencionan por que han sido llevados al patibulo y dados a morir en la plaza. En fin, no se logra tener con claridad si los personajes estan con vida o no, puesto a que el autor Desleal, asi lo hace creer.
