Beast
There are beasts with us now. The sentence seems overblown but it is said with such conviction that the words explode in the air like fireworks. There have always been beasts amongst us. Some are here tonight to learn about themselves, as many don’t see themselves as beasts or simply don’t know what beasts are. Perhaps some are here to learn how to be better beasts. I look around at the occasional male face in the audience, desperate to see the beasts. Everyone else does the same. In turn they look at me and weigh up. Boyfriend? Partner? Father? Beast?
