A Flash Fiction Piece in Parts by Matt Maday

Just a dream or hallucination not reality—or—a dissociative state that did occur in response to a reality so shocking! that—WHOA UH—having an out-of-body experience when you’re outside your spacecraft and in outer space—that will slap you naturally back to consciousness.
