As a result of my interaction and eventual synonymity with the Music from Beyond the World I do not reflexively distinguish myself from others. I perceive thoughts and feelings with exquisite clarity, their hues, locations and intensities, but applying the semiotic butchers blade of “I” and “you” is now the function of intellect or a powerful individuating emotion, not natural behavior. I get the words reversed without noticing, particularly with people from whom I hide myself, or those from whom I hide nothing.
