Constructive Criticism
Learning a receptive attitude
Present front and center
limp but rigid
like a mannequin
eyes unfocused
every fingertip touch
each nodded instruction
inhabiting me
background processing
not taking action
action takes me
across the floor
muscle memory in action
practice
makes progress
perfect practice
makes perfect
perfection the goal
no one achieves

Harmonian Isle
The ancient tower known to the people of Xeocun as Harmonian Island is identical to others found all across Fractallus. The towers form a matrix of sorts, invisible waves of cyber connectivity meet and form a web of connections that envelop the planet in a remotely accessible field of electronic information and power for those with the equipment to access it.
