HUMAN SHIELD

Recapitation therapy operations require 3 components: A.) exo-skull
visor; then, B.) slotted insertion underlay mask implant; and, C.)
cavity insulation mummifying bandages — ordered according to a
completely different sequence from predecessors taken over from by
exo-skull visor, slotted insertion underlay mask implant and cavity
insulation mummifying bandages, the winning formulæ.  Between
exo-skull visor and slotted insertion underlay mask implant is where
cavity insulation mummifying bandages grow, performing emergency
lifesaving miracle-cure cosmetic plastic surgery facelift treatment
and healing of injury and symptom; poised on standby for attendance to
damage repair and mistake correction tasks on exo-skull visor and
slotted insertion underlay mask implant, whom are gratefully indebted
to cavity insulation mummifying bandages for these services rendered.
When gift-wrapping removal time moment of truth is due, exo-skull
visor, slotted insertion underlay mask implant and cavity insulation
mummifying bandages come off, break up, flake, crumble, melt, dissolve
and evaporate away, each taking the others with them as they go,
leaving no trace behind of exo-skull visor, slotted insertion underlay
mask implant and cavity insulation mummifying bandages, destroying the
evidence.  Acupuncture, blood-letting, fuel refills and injected
transfusion encourage sloughed scales and flayed hide, malted and shed
by exo-skull visor, slotted insertion underlay mask implant and cavity
insulation mummifying bandages to mingle together and breed
replacement superior strain of exo-skull visor, slotted insertion
underlay mask implant and cavity insulation mummifying bandages,
giving birth to new and improved selves of their former shadows.
Composite of exo-skull visor, slotted insertion underlay mask implant
and cavity insulation mummifying bandages consume and feed each other
— and everything that comes their way; fusion, uniting exo-skull
visor, slotted insertion underlay mask implant and cavity insulation
mummifying bandages into one whole, linking up to different, separate
entities they intercept and encounter.
