Was not the arbitrary distinction between illusion and reality the ultimate illusion itself? - Norman Spinrad

Does something truly speak to me from beyond the void, or is it merely my own desire?

For truth be told, I was tormented by perceptions and their corollary temptation which from a social definition rendered me unsane, though from a more absolute viewpoint what I might be said to have been suffering from was an excess of insight.

I want to take you as close as you can get, I want to feel your ecstasy as you feel mine, I want to bridge the final gap between us, I want us to come together in a place where each can know the other does not lie.
