I thought about heatstroke, but I remembered that you weren’t supposed to sweat. Then, just as quickly, the icy wave passed to be replaced by the muttering. I wasn’t too scared, which was really weird. Did this mean I was getting used to being crazy? Did crazy people even worry about things like that? But I was more . . apprehensive. The empty eye of that window the next level up seemed to yawn wider and wider and then this arrow of thought: the muttering—the voices—wanted me inside. Well, why not?

I know that sounds weird, but . . I don’t know any other words to say it. I think that’s why artists say they’re tapped out, nothing more in the well. For them, there’s no more water, nothing left to draw from or out. But for me, when I draw, when I’m at my best, there’s this tiny click, the flick of an inner light switch, and then I’m pulling, drawing from this hidden place in my head and the drawing swells and grows larger and is me.
