Theres an empty pain between my thighs, the pain has teeth that bite me and the vodka is tearing my insides again, theres something cool on my neck, I feel a draught coming from somewhere, somethings panting on my neck, a sour breath, I want to throw off the heavy sack of cement, I want to run away, whatever it is sticks its tongue down my throat, I thrash about but it thrusts its full weight on top of me, I cant move my legs, Im a flattened frog, I get pins and needles and my thighs go numb, more teeth glittering and ambushing me, what are they waiting for, I resist, now some fingers squeeze my neck, Im gripped by tentacles and cant move, I cant breathe, the pain bites me and wont let go
