Ron Reed reads Nathaniel Hawthorne's "The Haunted Mind," a hypnotic meditation on that strange moment between sleep and wakefulness when time seems suspended and our deepest thoughts rise to the surface.

• Exploration of that singular moment when we first awake from midnight slumber
• Description of the mind's unique state when neither fully asleep nor fully awake
• Reflection on how 2 AM represents an "intermediate space" free from yesterday's fatigue and tomorrow's concerns
• Examination of how our deepest regrets and sorrows visit us in these vulnerable midnight hours
• Contemplation on the parallel between drifting back to sleep and the soul's final journey
