"Something deep down was broken." -James Tate, from the Ghost Soldiers

The little beasts have no personalities of their own. They just mimic the person whose organs they’ve replaced. My little beasts sit up at night and watch old sitcoms, which they must act out, because there are no televisions in my body. Television, thus, has a new signification in my body. It’s the acting of played out situations by little beasts. They roll their eyes like I do. Also, my little beasts are always clutching at their guts, worried about what’s going on inside.
