King Cloud is a compensatory symbol used to further establish the actual existense of an abstract "happening". A brightly colored styrofoam float attached by a silver chord to a great and wonderous sea creature. Dead or alive, and at which level, we do not know. At times we are certain of both. I guess some things are forever in the realm of speculation until we can convince ourselves with some new science. Until that science is abruptly overturned (as it always is, and the overturnings are happening faster and faster these days). All we can really say is that something invisible is moving around. Or that we are moving around something invisible and static. Either way, there is something there. Unless that SOMETHING is really a NOTHING and by ingesting that empty nothing you are shown that it is really just one of the myriad hidden aspects of you that is happening. The ingested NOTHING - an empty space across which to view yourself. Besides, nobody sees or hears exactly what you do in the order that it happens to you. No Body.

Dude, remember when we'd have the "bet" goin on? Actually, I think I was the last to lose... and I still have to do something still.
Remember when I ran on Governer's Bridge and you yelled "FRESH MEAT" out loud so that Goatman would hear me? Man that was awesome.
There are videos on youtube about Glenn Dale Hospital. I showed Audrey and Emma and they totally want me to take them there. Why are my daughters demented like I am?
