How strange and beautiful and other-worldly and exhausting and sweet. I’d talk about your writing, but feeling too emotional about this piece. I love it.
Some lovely descriptions – vivid, and hallucinogenic, as the others have noted. Reaching for, but not quite attaining, transcendence. On a technical note, I found the repeated use of the ampersand oddly quite distracting; I appreciate, though, that it does save on the character count.
