Jacky Blue Note
An escaped Archon
Back from a jaunt to the Crab Nebula—
Vapor Kid found him drunk in The Cobra’s Poison
An ugly, little hole in the wall bar offa the Nightmare Strip.
The Blue Note was flush with new paper
Reality smugglin for the Andromeda Syndicate paid large
Jacky, already hip to the inevitable,
Clued the Kid to quantum movement
Coordinates points in the two state simultaneous
And dark politics influenced by the O.I.
(Outside Influence).
“Spankin new Divide and Conquer existence program
Contracted and rolled out by Dremchak Incorporated. . .
Chak bin preservin realities for the Algorithm of Sufferin
Since Trinity back in ’45.”
The Kid figured as much
But Jacky had a line on another caper,
Infecting first contact worlds
With religion and calendars
And the language virus.
The Blue Note chuckled,
“Ultimate control mechanisms, see.
They be ours for the takin.”
Linear Flow slipped, actuality as blurring color,
Jacky using a bi-dialmeter
“This dead planet be over. Let’s blow this popsicle stand,”
He winked at the Kid,
“And remember. . .no mercy for the enemy.”

So it’s the Vapor Kid and Nicky 9
Strollin the Nightmare Strip
Nicky’s a cute lil thing, a Blue Note protégé,
A stowaway from an alternate Earth
They’re castin long shadows on the empty street
Like the only two souls still alive
It’s a twenty-first century isolation lockdown
And Nicky’s talkin easy money quantum entanglement
Nicky sez the Blue Notes’s back on-planet
For the calamity convention,
For the black market bonanza
Watchin the virus bring Opportunity and Death
In equal measure
And old time tunes drift from an opened window
In a burst of nostalgia for moments never known
The Vapor Kid and Nicky 9
Disappear into the lonely, urban sunset
Just silhouettes on the concrete horizon

[translation from Japanese]
I am Kira.
So what then?
You're going to kill me?
Are you sure that's what you want to do?
It's true, that from a typical common sense standpoint,
I represent evil, and you represent justice.
But which of us is really making the world a better place?
Robbery. Murder. Arson.
I have erased hundreds, thousands of criminals.
But that's all to protect good people.
The evil you could not punish under your laws,
I eliminated for you.
All people have the right to pursue and find happiness.
But all of that can come to a sudden end because of a handful of rotten humans.
You've seen many such victims, haven't you?
And it hurts every time, doesn't it?
You've all felt frustrated by your helplessness, haven't you?
Evil only begets evil.
Malicious people are allowed to run rampant, spreading their wicked deeds.
And weak people are crushed by that until they themselves begin to rot as well.
Eventually, they begin justifying it all, if to nobody else, then to themselves.
Sorry to tell you...
But that's the world we live in now.
