The Horror in Clay

The Fall

Mes: the most merciful thing in the world is man’s inability to correlate all

of his mind’s contents.

but the sciences one day, some say it is already upon

us, will eventually open up such terri

Vistas of reality that we will either go mad from the revelation or flee into

blissful sleep, peace and safety of another new dark age

I’m mark edward smith, these words are hp lovecraft’s.

we give you the horror

in clay

Techno bit footsteps

The packing.

the bas relief is — rectangle, six inches by five inches,

one inch thick (with hieroglyphics) neither ancient nor modern,

sort of cornwall-slash-modern art.

tentacled head, scaly body, (half are wings) ???

behind this is a small two
