Phantom Soup: Short Stories for the Evicted Citizen

By Mitchell Pluto

This prose text message style writing adheres to dark surrealism and absurdist elements, aiming to create a psychedelic effect on the mind. Commercials deceptively try to distract us; however, the age of Kali Yuga disrupts the planned schemes in each story. In this world, a political criminal cult holds our minds hostage, AI is a collective autoscopic hallucination, and a Zen Buddhist poet breaches the program code with an allegorical skeleton as a warning about the dangers of rigid doctrines.
