From the film Beyond The Walls
Bellyof theBeast
“I was taken into this abyss and swallowed by a giant sea monster.”DOM

A tempest. The steady heartbeat.
Took place under water. There was a boat, a storm?
The descent into the dark.
The great ocean of the unconscious.
Drowning within you.
A terrifying shape approaches.
What dies is swallowed up by something greater.
Out of the belly of hell.
Giant ribs make up the walls.
This tomb has encased you.
The hole is your emissary of the ocean.
To return to the belly is to return to the womb.
What will you be re-birthed as?
Dom spent 40 days in the hole
Now step
inside it
The beast was a dream. The cell was real: six by nine feet, the light never off.
