That last one was the last page.  But...I didn't put this image here.  I didn't - did I?  I remember spelling it out, letter by letter, like they tell me to.  Singing the song that helps. 

The streets of London, grey eminence intelligences in their high tower over the Court road  - caught road - singing information webs across the city - opposing the shifting grey ones in their quiet - we all went to AUSTRALIA, acronym Heaven.  Corporation Underworld, Hades fills in forms and stamps your rent book - he's there, too big eyes and grey fur, running down the fences - at night, at the bottom of your garden - look, it's your window he's outside -

Nine names - Nonadei - I - She went outside, bigger and wider, saw the edges of space and the greatest terror and oh, when you forget to be afraid, it's so beautiful -

That's the message.  Just that - ends of space and time, but still a quiet school afternoon in the sun that you forgot because it was just peace and stillness - don't you remember?  The sounds of happy voices  in the distance -

Focus.

There's a curtain.  Here, next to me, whilst I type.  Got to stay focused on the words now.  Heavy curtain, across one corner of the room.  How long has that been there - why don't I remember - wait, there was one like this when I was so small, not this house though - what - what's behind FOCUS FOCUS FOCUS WORDS  - it's moving - there's a breeze, outside sounds - leaves -

FOCUS going to pull the curtain back and see - there's music there and cold air scares but - but - some scares are better than anything - I have to see -

Just
have
to
see
