Monstruo

The heart of a man is sinuous...

There is a boy who slips and slides over the winter blacktop in Toronto, gliding about on his shiny white and red Schwinn with nary a sound at all. And you never quite get a good look at him, aside from his pimply face and his big, square glasses.

In the wake of that Schwinn are found the bones and broken bodies of little girls and boys. Their corpses are bent, punctured, twisted, and always surrounded by a scattering of pennies and paperclips. Always, there is a big, fat human shit cooling beside them. And so the question on everybody’s lips is this:

Have you seen this boy?

The heart of a man is devout...

She was never anything but a good mother, a good friend, until the Fascists decided to send her little boy off to war. A fortune teller and a baker by trade, she puts her talents to the task of keeping her only beautiful boy alive through the war.

But the cards are bleak, and show only darkness and bloodshed in the future set out for her boy. And so this good mother puts the darkest knowledge at her disposal to work, sacrificing her closest friends in order to create an infernal communion. A horrific, devilish confection that may save her boy from the battlefield.

The heart of a man is conniving...

He is a good husband. He is a good father.

He would never hurt his children.

For a lifelong con artist, the juggling of a thousand secrets and lies, a fake job and the very real family he must support is growing too hard to handle. When his various debts come due, he finds all the balls in the air beginning to rain down on him.

Faced with letting all truths finally see the light, he decides that such a revelation will be too much for him to take. Possibly even too much for his family to survive.

But he is a good husband. A good father.

And he would never hurt his children.

The heart of a man is volatile...

He fell in love with a woman that had been born a man, a beautiful transgender Thai girl of whom his parents would never approve. They live in bliss, or something close to it, until the pressures of this star-crossed romance grow too great.

Now his beautiful lover is dead and butchered, a growing stain on his otherwise posh and metropolitan life he will not be able to scrub out. So this man, a cook by trade, prepares his final and most terrible feast.
