The Ghost in the Cloud Chapter 3: Polyexistence



This is the third chapter of my audio science fiction story about a cyberspace being called Jack, who is trying to understand that part of reality which only humans can see, but which they have blocked from their conscious minds by their empirical belief system. With the help of a child by the name of Angelina, Jack attempts to study that strange world through her eyes by the aid of nanocells that he has implanted in her to broadcast to him those things which she (unknown to herself) is able to see. The nanocells, however have begun to restructure and enhance Angelina's neural network making her a savant to the dismay of her mother who is striving for normality after the disappearance of her husband, Rabbit.

Wake

When you wake you disturb
the placid waters that
want sleep—that will return
to rest once you have passed
trouble them all the same
and wake while you have life
