I haven’t had a good night’s sleep for weeks. Food is scarce, so I have a constant ache in my stomach, although I am fairly acquainted with hunger. I can’t shut my eyes without seeing the dogs from a few nights back. I am paranoid at this point. Ever since the last run in, I think I might be imagining things. I see and hear things like shadows hiding, footfalls following my every move, and the distant, yet real voices and barks of not-so far off predators. Everything is a threat, and everything

The room was bathed in a mesmerizing night sky of green and blue, synchronizing with the sway of the vibrating bed. Still, “Tim’s” brow was furrowed as he repeated, “Why won’t we do that?” The classical music in the background was not enough to calm his echolalia. As I adjusted Tim’s weighted blanket, I began to hum a harmony to the song. Since Tim was not fond of noise-blocking headphones, this was the closest I could get to relaxing him.

I looked around and saw big, round, peach torsos which walked on two roots and had two more roots out of their middle body.They also had a smaller potato attached to the top of it and had really thin roots coming out from the top of it. That was my first time seeing those creatures, in fact that was my first time seeing anything. I didn’t know what was happening around me except that I was

non-musicians with at least seven years of experience, requiring them to reproduce synthesised vocal tones, produced by a computer. First, they were asked to match the note using a slider, a simple device in which a sliding button changes the pitch of a sound, like sliding a finger up and down a guitar string. Both groups eventually were able to make the match, suggesting perception was not the problem. “People were hearing the right notes,” explains Hutchins. “While the trained musicians were quicker,

You close your eyes to mask the cold, sterile light of the room. Every inch of you hurts. Every movement is taut, painful. You are weary of waking up. All you want to do is roll over and die. Even death is a privilege that you are denied; you just want to escape, death is your only escape…. You can’t die, murmured the familiar, blithesome voice in your ear. The voice confirms her presence. She titters like an infant at your feeble attempts to scuffle the decrepit, frayed linen off. The little girl
