1. Splat! the manifestation of It!
2. Every man and every woman is a sucker, there is no difference. Vive la difference.
3. Isis was in crisis. Horus began to bore us. Maat is already old haat.
4. Therefore am I come with Forces and Fire and Fallout to proclaim the Aeon of Ka-Peht.
5. To worship me take buckets of blood and nasty bodily exudations, wear loony apparel and do a myriad naughty things.
6. My hermits can be found rolling about in beds with colossal women for whom 'Do not wilt' shall be the whole of the Law.
7. Exceed! Exceed! But ever unto me!
8. Choose ye an island and engine it about with dung that I may roll therein.
9. Seventeen is my secret name, being ninety nine to Fools. Though the Jew would put me in my late forties, to the DHSS I am UL 56 84 37 D.
10. Divide, add, multiply and remain utterly confused.
11. For I am the blue lidded one, their along from the one with the tartan lid, and in my emptiness I am full.
12. That baffled you, o prophet, but there comes one after you from no expected quarter, an even worse nutter than theyself, to him these mysteries shall be as clear as daylight.
13. Here, therefore, is some more weird stuff: A I K 2 7 ? £ Y 9 H 3 P P. Mark well these runes.
14. Yes I am the rat-headed one of the seventeen eyes. With emerald talons I tear the liver of wishy-washy occult wets. My raven locks are knotted about the throats of the reductionists and psychologisers, for Bad Taste with a Vengeance is my secret name.
15. With bat wings of studded leather I beat the air over Him on the cross. I bide my time till Horus shall stoop to peck His eyes, then will I swoop.
16. SPLAT! It is manifest. Yea, It is manifest.
17. And how.
