Muffit,

You REALLY had me going on this one. I was thinking something else, entirely. Good story!

Wonderful ending. Had me guessing the whole time.

Excellent read, as usual, Muffit!

Oh Muffit that was really cool
After reading these two sections I knew what "you" were and what you were describing.


"Through my periphery, I saw the bars on either side, and walls perhaps at head and feet. I was in a cell."
and
"It was then I noticed it; a bizarre device suspended above me. Forming a circle at its perimeter, hung pale colored objects, of shapes I could not begin to understand. "


After working in the maternity ward I spent many hours thinking about the birthing process and the world of a baby and how they might perceive their surroundings the way you describe it is very much what I imagined.

The way you have structured this story reminds me of a short story I read in college called "The Lottery" by Shirley Jackson
