RE: Day 1824: 5 Minute Freewrite: Thursday - Prompt: labeling

Thank you for today's prompt. In my five minutes, I became the subject of Alien research

When they took me, they spent a long time making up words to label and categorize the different parts of my being. Using robotic translators, they would point and ask me the names of different appendages and parts of the body. A mechanical finger would pivot and extend to point at my nose. “Nose,” I would say. The robotic translator would then translate some questions from them about the function of this and that. Which would often lead to further questions and follow-up questions like, “what is smell?” Smell is tough to describe to beings who have never smelled. By my count, I’ve been here at least thirty days, and we’ve only covered parts of the face. At least the food is good, and delivered to my room on a regular schedule.
