   Sorry, was going to reply earlier but I’m trying to surprise my wife when   
   she gets back in a couple days with a new chicken coop, halfway done!! Happy   
   wife happy life thing lol    
   That song, ‘All the king’s horses’ so cool! I know how it feels to be   
   disassembled in a sense.    
   I tried to convince myself that I just imagined all of it – I even   
   considered the idea that I could be sick. If I were crazy then at least I had   
   an answer and I could feel my feet back on the ground once again - even if   
   that meant that I’d be somehow    
   broken when I came around, or Id wake up, still in some bed - just a lunatic   
   trapped in this head.   
   One of my favorite Feynman, quotes “The first principle is that you must not   
   fool yourself – and you are the easiest person to fool” That meant a lot   
   to me, he was a very knowledgeable man, he had a method, and I trusted him. I   
   had so many doubts,    
   mainly in myself. I’m nobody, always have been. I was a neglected kid,   
   always struggling to keep up, so naïve and alone in my head, never prepared   
   for what comes next. I was just getting out of foster care when I got found   
   that DB ticket (Madison, 94   
    I think?). I felt like they made a mistake though - trusting me with such a   
   thing. But I’ll be damned if I’m giving it away!    
   I had so many questions on top of the doubts: “What did I just touch?”   
   “Or, did it touch me?” “I wasn’t looking for it just then”   
   “Perhaps it was the other way around, and the whole time they have been   
   searching?” ‘They’ listen to    
   me, “What in the fuck am I saying!” They, I, or should I say ‘it’ –   
   “THIS SOUNDS CRAZY”- it was hard to tell, once ‘our-eyes-met’ I   
   couldn’t see where I started and the other quit - I knew one thing for sure   
   though – no one is going    
   to believe any of this shit.    
   This constant struggle to fight the drift and maintain some familiar bearing   
   in that boat. My radio in the meantime conspiring, suddenly apart of this   
   crazy covert campaign - the same old songs, but the meanings all changed!   
   Suddenly everything was    
   rearranged, like I had heard them all before for the first time again - but   
   something was different - it’s hard to explain - it can’t be what   
   they’re saying -  “You’re only coming through in waves” he would ring   
   - There it was again! “   
   SERIOUSLY, ENOUGH, THIS IS NUTS! “You can’t go down that path, if you go   
   too far, there’s no coming back!” Desperately trying to make sense of it -   
   while that gentle warm steady breeze pushed me back. I remember scrambling for   
   an anchor. GOD DAMN    
   IT PLEASE STOP!  “Please” I begged – “just give me a second and let me   
   catch my breath….” It was too much, too fast, as usual I wasn’t prepared   
   for any of this… “What the hell just happened back there, and how did you   
   get in my head?”    
   “Do you know what you’re asking me to believe – will I ever experience   
   that again – “  -  “NO, this can’t be happening...” You have turned   
   my world upside down, this isn’t a game, it’s my life, I don’t have much   
   - please don’t be    
   reckless with my light... I’m trusting you, I let you in - please I’m   
   asking you- tread softly- while I try to take this all in. Back in forth in   
   this duality, a stranger would ask “Where did you just go” but my words   
   won’t come out right so I   
   d quickly threw-up that mask and reach for something simple to say –Sorry,   
   I was just thinking about something someone once said, “sorry if I strayed,   
   I’ll try not to do it again”. :0) Ok, Back to the chicken coop with me :0)
