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.
