Mr Bradley Mr Martin hear us through the hole in thin air. Thing police, all boardroom reports now are ended. Fading out in _onolulu, _ew York, _aris, _ome, _oston. The great wind, evolving turrets, towers, palaces. Sound and image flakes fall. His dogs that were his eyes, shut off, Mr Bradley, mister-- gone away. Pulled the reverse switch. Place no good, no bueno. Turned off the Swedish river of Gothenburg, Saturday, March 17th, 1962, past time. These colorless sheets are empty. You never existed at all.
I smoke is all boy. Goodbye to William. Al hab. Last twinges of a coffin posting this book where the awning flaps a distant thank you. Explosion splits the boat. SOS. Five times SOS. Hear this little time, five scars left the dawn. Goodbye to Mr Martin, who never had courage to let go.
He heard your summons. Time hiccups. Last cigarette loud and clear. Last flag fading. Rings of Saturn in the morning sky, whatever remains could give no human contacts. Front for the hot reward business. Chinese youths sent the resistance vision to you tilting through pinball machine. Remember, I was the ship gives no flesh identity. Lips fading. Silence to say goodbye.
If you wanted a cup of tea with whatever remains, breadknife in the heart. Fade quivering excuse for being. Shadow American, look anyplace, empty new. Our actors proffer the account. Sheets are empty.
Many years ago, that breadknife in the war. Inessential word from the past. For I have known through faulty human equipment the vacant courage to let all messages in and out, to the mountain wind, loud and clear now. Through faulty human equipment hustling myself; your stale overcoat not taking any dirty pictures. Twisting hole in everybody, spilling out limestone john hamburger mary jackie bluenote. Had enough movies. No good, no bueno.
Yas, adios, meester. I go home, having lost. In sun I held the vacant courage to proffer the mountain wind. And I can see the flesh words answer your summons, no more falling on all flesh. Sheets are empty, the recordings remain.
Last human contact used as model for a bad move. Other identities are a rubbish heap to life form A, better than shouts, no good no bueno. Crime child, it's five times. Had enough flak of absent world?
Child of Nova, the story over. I fold distant fingers. The Doctor on stage, hand falling. Slow metal fires tap on the bloody sky. I think now I go home. Goodbye to William. You and I fading. Silence to say, you are yourself, Mr Bradley, Mr Martin, who never existed at all. Silence to say goodbye.
