Internal Iniquity is a one act, one scene, staged thought-piece in which MAN admits to VOICE that he, to his own horror and disgust, is sexually attracted to twelve year old Vanessa. MAN reflects on the circumstances that shifted their friendship to mutual desire. With VOICE hovering over and asking questions, MAN must admit to himself and them, what he did exactly to land him in this internal crisis? He knows he did wrong, but how can he prove to himself and VOICE that he’s not a monster, but a man?
