ALWAYS TEARS IN  MY EYES  WHEN USING THE 
                 MACHINE.                 
                                          
 I DON'T  THINK  IT'S  HORMONAL OVERLOAD. 
 THERE'S  NO  GRIEF  OR JOY AS  MY  WATER 
 ROLLS  DOWN  MY FACE. I  NOTICE  NOTHING 
 UNTIL  MY CHIN  IS WET. WIPE IT OFF WITH 
 THE BACK  OF MY HAND. BUT I USUALLY KEEP 
            CRYING FOR A WHILE.           
                                          
 I  THEORIZE  SOME  KIND OF  RESONANCE IN 
  THE NEURAL INTERFACE; SOME SATURATION   
 SIGNAL BEING  TRIPPED? THE CONNECTION IS 
       IMPERFECT AND OFTEN INDUCES        
  SINGLE-SENSE HALLUCINATIONS. ACUTE BUT  
 HOLLOW  HUNGER.  SAND  GRAINS  UNDER  MY 
  FINGERTIPS. STRANGE TASTES AND SCENTS.  
                                          
 AND  I  MEAN,  MAYBE  IT  ISN'T  TO  FAR 
 FETCHED  THAT  SOMETHING LIKE  THAT  CAN 
  CAUSE AUTONOMOUS REACTIONS? DRY MOUTH.  
    FINGER SPASMS. OPENED TEAR DUCTS.
