Non-Euclidean Ventures 6-15 6. So, the second and the third Wedding Guests — those not stopped, who never looked back —what becomes of them, their progeny,in an after all new agewhen — glutted with plastic, oneby one — tiny albatrosses die? Can weigh many ways 7. It goes up and down, and there is a littlemelody, and there is repetition.Heaven Realm allows players to traverse space and time simultaneously, so making a 5-D concept8. Piece breaks off, drifts for an instant, mere, then returnsas certain desperate words will do, thank the Lord, even if pale syllables, even if countingto twelve again, so no more of that.Yes, I do the exercises, and I shall try to do them better and better 9.

In Heaven realm, warfare is ubiquitous, so you can never knowwhen it will happen to you.Malleus maleficarum 13. I walked up through Heaven’s green hill. The grasscame all the way through my feet.Confirmed in 2007: Hell exists and is eternal 14. Her earthly remainsscatteredin several Spanish churches, aside from one foot, in Rome.Clarity of this stone 15. Another 500 yards from the Throne Room of God, “Unclaimed Blessings.”Legs hanging from the wall; every part of one’s anatomy there in that room.No everlasting torment in the Pentateuch
