Futures, Options, and Swaps (the weblog of Alan DeNiro)

another section from the Palinomicon

The transcriptions continue apace. I have hunkered down, tried to steel myself, but the deceptively simple revelations of this list still draw consternation. Have any of these namings been enacted?

Meanwhile…I almsot hear the recitations of this wicked logos throughout the land now. The anger of the minions — the followers, if you will, of this infernal tome — are growing restless. They gather in unruly crowds, as if to open a portal to the Realms of Night by their very presence, a teeming mass of seething rancor, in a dark communion with their obstenible leaders. I wonder, however, if those leaders know what they have wrought, what they threaten to unleash.

I shudder to think of the Palinomicon’s words writ large with deeds upon the world.

    You might enjoy the poetry of Sarah Palin, by Hart Seely at Slate. Though clearly that’s only the aspect shown to the world, bearing little relation to the deeper esoteric work you’re delving into.
