    ✈︎ My eyes on your eyes like peter pan up in the sky ✈︎


    :: There was a time when all the body's members
    Rebell'd against the belly, thus accused it:
    That only like a gulf it did remain
    I' the midst o' the body, idle and unactive,
    Still cupboarding the viand, never bearing
    Like labour with the rest, where the other instruments
    Did see and hear, devise, instruct, walk, feel,
    And, mutually participate, did minister
    Unto the appetite and affection common
    Of the whole body. The belly answer'd--

    :: Well, sir, what answer made the belly?

    ::Sir, I shall tell you. With a kind of smile,
    Which ne'er came from the lungs, but even thus--
    For, look you, I may make the belly smile
    As well as speak--it tauntingly replied
    To the discontented members, the mutinous parts
    That envied his receipt; even so most fitly
    As you malign our senators for that
    They are not such as you.

This is my NaNo piece for 2015.

Two stories, set in two different worlds, one is a version of earth in the future where we have progressed brilliantly, and the world has gotten so much better, the other world is the same earth, but electricity was never discovered. 

Cover is off the internet, art by DOLK
