The monkey leaned down, whispered in my ear "Don't forget to pick up more beer." I nodded in agreement, I nodded in rhythm with the demons' song. They whistled and they smiled and did the backstroke, jauntily along, through the river of whiskey that I had tried to drown them with. A thousand-toothed yawn, the monster finds it all too easy. I don't even put up a fight, I sit down at night and forget. I forgot.
