The slow reveal over the course of this monologue as to what happened to our narrator, the fetus, leaves the reader/audience with haunting lines. I also appreciated that the character spoke about how they were wanted and loved vs. people who may deal with unwanted pregnancies: this is all the more important in our post-Roe world. It makes it all the more visceral and disturbing that Egypt's and their mother's life was cut so short by such horrific violence. Featuring this in some scripts literary magazine Issue 5 was a privilege.
