INTERMISSION. BEFORE THE END The organ player transmits the rich sickly syrup of reverb- -arating emotion . slugish and cranking gospel greedy. Faster and bright silver treackle falls hard and naked.The chant heart beats faster.Telescopic tempo melting crystals crash at the last form and down flows liquid sound.Draggin cycles back into solid sound, strips the skeleton of rhythm up there where the void slowly spreads in converging repet -itive circles dragging a dead slur of organ tones.Tinnc indistinct drags behind the transmuted sound in hard cryst- -aline jagged and solid, soiled geometric and fragile sounc splintters raining down on syrup fed slugs. Blood and salted slime trailed over shattered glass mayhem mindless nonsolid twisted monocrome sound. Sound drones hanging on tones hitting gibbet dragged listen on that one note into oblivion.Quadrupaling disolved blood droplets sealed glass sickness leaps thin over abyss hung on that one note strung out on sound timeless void between each note. Slugs gorge on sound syrup.panic struck, devour syrup as greek ghost sup blood sacrifice. Sick churning astral zoom in mad rapid repetition, screach of breaking sound/Tiem contlumn abruptly snuffs the candel faame showering hot wax over stricken slugs. The sound passes the threshold of hearing into lower frequ- -encies frenzy last kick. and volume dies.the listeners are freed.^ and run slithering under rocks and pews alike.The sound is now expanding atomically.the atoms of sound mov< farther apart and now more void than real.The sound its self is a vacuum the salted slugs blown out by internal air pressure. Die slow to twistted spiral down Imploded by SOUND.. .....END..
