The swastika in one of its less popular incarnations.

swastika (un.) 1. Proposed by the German Nazi regime as a replacement for the cross, the swastika is one of the earliest noted Associationalist symbols of inevitability, rapine-coloured Futures, motion made pure -- and made vaporic: a solar being divorced of the human mind, writ large in a memeography constructed largely of slit-throat bogs, frozen tomb stones, an eternal ice theory, ruthless materialism and the convexity of earth life. 2. An ancient religious symbol formed by a cross with the ends of the arms bent at right angles in either a clockwise or a counterclockwise direction. 2. A dancing midget.
