Reflections of a CNS victim

Hi, my name is Ron Cunningham. And I am a victim of CNS.

Gosh, Toto, we’re not in GNV anymore.

Crick Neck Syndrome.

Look! Up in the sky!

CNS most commonly occurs when a built-low-to-the-ground GNV denizen like myself is set loose to wander around a large metropolis.

One with…well…towering towers of glass and steel. Like San Francisco’s Financial District.

I simply can’t help myself.

It’s not a bird nor a plane.

My head pops skyward like I was some demented bobble doll.

And it stays that way until, inevitably, the heartbreak of CNS sets in.

And don’t even get me started on my flirtation with TGS.

But rather the stuff of acid dreams.

Terminal Gawking Syndrome.

Symptoms of which commonly include the sudden appearance of hallucinogenic colors and strange floating shapes before my strained eyes.

Is it art, or is it gimmickry?

It drives my wife crazy. Says it makes me look like some rube tourist fresh off the farm.

Wait! What the hell is that?

But listen! Some may look skyward and wonder what ever happened to the sun up there.

I have an iPhone and I must click.

Not me. I look skyward and see shapes within shapes. Reflections within reflections. Visions within visions.

I do not have a pain in the neck.

Something tells me we’re not in GNV anymore Toto.

I am a pain in the neck.

We need to get out of here before I succumb to TGS.

Or maybe something more pedestrian.

Like wander blindly into the street to be mowed down by a robo-taxi suffering from CNS.
