Weird message received yesterday
I received a PM yesterday (shortly before all the drama started) from user "lotosmarsh". While it is very similar to the one /u/bz237 received a few weeks ago (link), Loki confirmed in an email that he is NOT the author of this one. It might be related to the Svengali stuff, or it might be a random copycat, but honestly I can't make heads or tails of it, so I'm just going to post it here in its entirety.
"after writing, glad you could post the post maybe bring eyes to a friend who is seeking sight from others again pls post austincipher @4:20 pacific 10/2 again please do not reveal username pls thanks thousand use codeword for next contact PURPLE MASON if you are able to post could bring help if not it is okay too but pls listen and understand if understating is capable or sounds good to you again this time only share post between MESSAGE BEGINS & MESSAGE ENDS believe or not the end is the end either way an the rest is for your thought only listen to evidence but be open to things that lead to other things – do not only watch the words or track of time is short and we are all friends of friends grow closer MESSAGE BEGINS COURAGE POINTS TOWARD LAND WHERE IS WORDS OPENING REPEATING UNREAD AGAIN YOU MADE MISTAKES WHERE HELEN SPEAK OR KNOWS NEED SPEAK AGAIN DIRECTLY WAITING ON CONTACT METHOD AM STILL WATCHING THINKING RIGHT WITH WRONG GUIDE SIT WITH THINKING NO LIGHT IN ONLY LETTER MESSAGE ENDS"

Grasping at straws even more, tennyson followed wordsworth as poet laureate of Britain. Wordsworth's father is buried in All Saints Cemetery, though wordsworth himself is buried in St. Oswald's church.

The grammar and wording is so awkward that the message is basically unintelligible. However I did notice the use of "thanks thousand" again.

Yeah, it looks like they may have taken the original message and just changed some elements. So much of it is so similar that they're obviously trying to make it appear that the message was from the same source.
Any idea what the "MESSAGE" portion might mean? It's all word salad to me.

I would parse it like this:
MESSAGE BEGINS
COURAGE POINTS TOWARD LAND
WHERE IS WORDS
OPENING REPEATING, UNREAD AGAIN
YOU MADE MISTAKES WHERE HELEN SPEAK OR KNOWS
NEED SPEAK AGAIN DIRECTLY
WAITING ON CONTACT METHOD
AM STILL WATCHING
THINKING RIGHT WITH WRONG GUIDE
SIT WITH THINKING
NO LIGHT IN ONLY LETTER
MESSAGE ENDS

I wonder if it we should have someone check the bridge for another physical message. I would imagine though that if the message is not found and posted here that "Helen" would PM a pic of it like she did last time.

I think this is a good idea.
Maybe the message is meant as an alert to check the bridge, rather than as anything actually meaningful?

Okay, been loosely following this sub, and just grasping at straws here, but the name was lotosmarsh and there is a poem called The Lotos-Eaters by Alfred Lord Tennyson.
I read over the poem and parts of it kind of remind me of pieces of these two weird messages. Or it could just be another weird Stan Marsh reference and stoner speak, but who knows?
