Phoenix... ╟┐│ └┼╢ ╟┼┘ ┌┼╢ ╟┼┐ │└╢ After having thought a lot about it, I decided to open the third ╟┘│ │┌╢ door.

But anyway, it is not what you see, but what you feel ╟┐│ └┼╢ when you open the packet, the reason why everybody eats ╟┼┘ ┌┼╢ 'cornflakes' at breakfast, normally very fast, because they have ╟┼┐ │└╢ to do long travels and visit the boss to ask for a rise in ╟┘│ │┌╢ salary, always feeling the tension in the atmosphere, but with ╟┐│ └┼╢ the wish in their mind, telling themselves, that nobody has a ╟┼┘ ┌┼╢ reason to hide from the scene, to climb a mountain or to fall ╟┼┐ │└╢ under the water... they are but a point in the space, my little ╟┘│ │┌╢ cornflake swimming in the milk, and the outskirts of a vast city, ╟┐│ └┼╢ where nobody knows everybody, in which everybody doesn't know ╟┼┘ ┌┼╢ anybody and anybody knows nobody, and the man in the middle of ╟┼┐ │└╢ the street is not the man that you were looking for, three ╟┘│ │┌╢ thousands faces behind the wall, waiting for an improvement in ╟┐│ └┼╢ the conditions of the luft, trying to hide from the beings in the ╟┼┘ ┌┼╢ space port, beyond the space in the limits between the reality ╟┼┐ │└╢ and dreams, flying into the cyberfrontier, opened to a new world, ╟┘│ │┌╢ full of new ways of intermedia exploration, signals in the air, ╟┐│ └┼╢ minds around the channel table waiting for an entry in the new ╟┼┘ ┌┼╢ system and the optic master creating the virtual ways to connect ╟┼┐ │└╢ the past with the future, without compatibility, without 640 kb, ╟┘│ │┌╢ trying to avoid the end of the game, the end of the beginning, no ╟┐│ └┼╢ end without transition, no transition without movement, and the ╟┼┘ ┌┼╢ movement is hot, and hot is sometimes your head, over your ╟┼┐ │└╢ shoulders, far away, deepin the sky, where your eyes can't see, ╟┘│ │┌╢ three stars in the edge, limits broken by the strength of your ╟┐│ └┼╢ mind... you see...
