A/N This chapter is like a puzzle and designed to be confusing like the disjointed thoughts of someone losing their sanity. If you don't want to solve it, skip to the end where he's back to the 'real' world and move on to the next chapter for the solution.
But if you want to give it a go, then good luck :) You can comment your interpretation for every paragraph.
