1984 – Page 2 – A Piece of the Sky

as useful as the 10 o’clock news
elephant bread
circumscribe, routinize
Bad Advice Eonni
the immortals of your world
Invaders of Eden
the AWPer
Thousand-year-old sage
Empty B Tray

fake, dummy accounts
Midsummer’s night
Geography Hero
it’s the attack of the ex
sci-fi yuri manga
the Answer is in the Question
fast-forwarding through history
potato sauce
Retribution

quickened into one giant thunderclap
what was lost and what was found
AWPed to death
viruses and livestock
inexorable Answer, intractable Question
primordial Eldritch squid god
flashbang city
the wrath of heroes
fade away, like the stars, at dawn

reloading in the scope
selling convenience
blue-water cargo cult
societies racing into tomorrow
still stuck in the ’90s
from Constantinople to Venice
bouncing around in history
King Solomon could see the future
nade the smoke

overwritten layer, false memories
Guardians of a magickal order on the astral plane
god of trash
pyro reverse measurement
The Pull of Dominance
the picture arises, out of the noise
the cosmos, the world, and the moon
what counts as social justice
A world that can now only exist in our hearts

penguins, ducks, and chickens
independent, your own team
god-Breaker
Thrash, Part II
military promotion, rank of Major
Cosmic karma balance cleared
Snake Eater and Light Bearer
the dream unit is formed
The Asura of Wrath

angry “angel”
virus transmission route
max magickal power
secrets hidden from the beginning of the world, with coded language
the Asura of Rage
the ghost dies when the body dies
avatar of god
call on the gods of the old world
smashed idol

Psychic weight
Magick is the Great Equalizer
personal Net
a sacred space, a sacred circle
Hairy scars
mobile land mine
becoming the “angel”
Poke holes in the sky
always c. 1983, in your heart
