@¨@¨@¨@¨@¨ I  DON'T THINK  IT'S  HORMONAL OVERLOAD. @¨@¨@¨@¨@¨
@¨@¨@¨@¨@¨ THERE'S  NO  GRIEF  OR JOY  AS  MY WATER @¨@¨@¨@¨@¨
@¨@¨@¨@¨@¨ ROLLS DOWN  MY  FACE.  I NOTICE  NOTHING @¨@¨@¨@¨@¨

@¨@¨@¨@¨@¨ THE  BACK OF MY HAND. BUT I USUALLY KEEP @¨@¨@¨@¨@¨

@¨@¨@¨@¨@¨       IMPERFECT AND OFTEN INDUCES        @¨@¨@¨@¨@¨
@¨@¨@¨@¨@¨  SINGLE-SENSE HALLUCINATIONS. ACUTE BUT  @¨@¨@¨@¨@¨
@¨@¨@¨@¨@¨ HOLLOW  HUNGER.  SAND  GRAINS  UNDER  MY @¨@¨@¨@¨@¨

@¨@¨@¨@¨@¨ FETCHED THAT  SOMETHING  LIKE  THAT  CAN @¨@¨@¨@¨@¨
