@,@,@,@,@, ALWAYS  TEARS IN MY EYES  WHEN USING THE @,@,@,@,@,

@,@,@,@,@, 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 @,@,@,@,@,

@,@,@,@,@, 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.  @,@,@,@,@,
