Working Title (MSP Writing Curation)
Became part of the corpuscular flow, the neural networking
Lurked underneath the body’s topography
Inserted into the brain, lazer thin, slivered chips
Made us cyborg, super human, superseding
Restoration by @riverflows explores the positive potential of augmenting the human body. I especially like her use of the word "topography" to describe the human map- it created such a fantastic visual of how the new technology might flow with the person.
I paid no attention to the candy aisle I walked though, nor the gazillion different boxes of heavily coated sugar cereals, nor the soft drinks. I was here for one thing and then I had to get back to work.
Monday by @tristancarax is one of those freewriting pieces that leaves me yearning for more- I have so many questions after reading it! Ultimately, I think this one creates a world that I would be really interested in seeing explored.
She stared at her hands, the tropical blue skin. Smooth. Faultless. Perfection. A crystal lagoon marred only by the movement of her bones. The nanites had done more than cover up her scars, vamp up her shade. The nick on her finger joint, the time her grandma had taken her to see horses. She’d tried to feed one and hadn’t quite flattened her hands. Gone.
Skin Deep by @calluna is an entry to bananafish's finish the story contest, which inspires such fantastic work! I love that calluna took this in a different direction, with a different character, as well as her eye for details that make this outlandish science fiction story believable.
You may think all mad scientists are German, but you would be forgetting Marie Curie. Not that she was any more of a "mad" scientist than Louis Pasteur. Getting radiated didn't make people mad, but that's another story.
The Visionaires by @carolkean examines the real-world issues involved with releasing technology like a teleport machine- why work that benefits mankind might be quelled, and how class plays into technology.
Your mouth is a starving earth
Your Lips and Heart have Never Been One by @seha76 is short but sweet, making excellent use of similes and metaphors to probe into how, in relationships, one person might consume the other.

Reflections by Sunravelme
I'm glad that you enjoyed my work. I intended it to be a part of @calluna's "Tell a Story to Me," A monthly contest held over at the @bananafish. I'm not sure where it will go or how it will turn out. Maybe you'll stop by when I release the full version on the story.
Oh cool! That contest inspires great work ❤️
