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.
