Well, the first draft ended with him texting the cat 'ur a sult' but I've grown a lot in the past four years. Now it's just implied that he thinks the cat is a sult (which he is.) Thanks for the feedback, and interpretation. It's funny - I wrote story about 4 years ago on a lazy day off work, drinking coffee and scrolling facebook. I've always been kind of fascinated by the 'flatness' of older's people facebook presence. Of course that's probably just attributable to their lack of familiarity with social media, but I thought it would be fun to do a story in the voice of someone who really was that flat (" 'all the hits,' i thought'' etc.) But then as I kept writing, it became a little stream of conscious-y and ---- I think your interpretation is dead on. It's basically a unintentional 'schizoid' self-portrait.Needs a bit of an edit here and there in my view, but it's a lot better than "Cat Person"

The backbone seems to be the drones (not even sure if the term applies, but that's how I categorise it), so by drones I mostly meant the instrumental part (as opposed to vocals). — Πετροκότσυφας
I like the rythm too, although, I'm pretty sure it would be different in my head had I read it first and not listened to the recitation. — Πετροκότσυφας
The Bass Communion tracks is nice too. I had only listened to "Ghost on Magnetic Tape" before. — Πετροκότσυφας
