DADS POV
Been out of a job
For five years, Gregor helps us
But now he’s a bug

SISTERS POV
The lodgers listened
As I played the violin
They did not like it

GREGORS POV
An apple is stuck
They do not care anymore
I am left to die

GREGORS POV
I lost my job and
I lost my family
What am I to do?

GREGORS POV
All I do is work
Is this why I’m a beetle?
Do I have a life?

Gregor
Take it all away
If you must, take everything
But leave the picture
