"Friends, I had been a rather towns-fave circus artist in a travel-company before a chemistry-accident rendered me blind and heightened my sense of hearing and made me think-back on my days of the circus as a visionary performer for my Selfie age of life/culture festivity 'blended' face-representations (Facebook-like)."

GHOST: You like those Choose-Your-Own-Adventure novels?

ME: Why you visit me regularly now in my dream-sleep, specter-woman?

GHOST: I want to challenge your consciousness with questions of flexibility.

ME: This is a simplified test of free will metaphysics, of liberty or liberties.

GHOST: Your blindness made you hear better; you use Braille-novel reading.

ME: It's convenience mixed with personalized creativity desires, specter, so?

GHOST: Suicide is the ultimate statement of flexibility, of free will or liberties.

ME: This is a dare for me to think of plasticity and creativity and depression?

GHOST: Can you depend on 'adaptation-hyperbole' to stay depression-free?

ME: I guess a Choose-Your-Own-Adventure book in Braille is...meditation.

GHOST: See if that's truth for your life, for heeding words of oracles/gods.

ME: As a Catholic, that interests me, for angel-arts (e.g., Lady of the Lake).

GHOST: Good-luck (for doom-shade), ex-clown (ha).

"Friends, being challenged in dream-sleep in this life on Earth, as a blind-man and ex-clown, made me think deeply now about the incomplete-distances of things of adaptation and free will for outlook and consciousness. I began to think liberally now about great sports-rivalry games on TV and how I adapted this enduring-fanfare into radio-listening for such games as substitution for my screen-image entertainment on any given Saturday (college football) or Sunday (professional football) in the American Homeland (ha). I decided private entertainment and thoughts of creative or ornamental orientation infused in me special white-or-gold 'feelings' of self-determined longevity attitude about flexibility as desirable and energizing and even romantic!"

MIRROR: You stare at me, yourself, in the mirror, man?

ME: You can see I'm blind, mirror-image of me, but I stare as if I see straight!

MIRROR: That's funny, blind-man (ha).

ME: Funny how light is reflected off a mirror-surface but gives depth-percept.

MIRROR: That's not true for sound-physics, blind-man; sound bounces off void.

ME: The mirror-reflection is an illusion, it's not a real dimension or 'world' (so?).

MIRROR: Your ghost in dream-sleep has you thinking to yourself (vanities).

ME: That's good practice for mortal thoughts of lentils, surely (Selfie-like).
