The day of love, the day of fun,
a bright blue sky with shining sun.
Another smile, another kiss, The solitude, the loneliness,
reminding me of what I miss. eternal source of my distress,
they all come out this very day
The world around, so full of light,   reminding me of my decay.
appears to me as deep black night
and happy souls are hunting me, Oh Valentine, I'm bound to see
but I am trapped and cannot flee. how wunderful true love can be,

it has been a while... wired96, xmas, 1997 and finally...▄■ ▀██▐█▀▀▌  welcome back to your favourite nightmare, the mean scheme
valentine 1997 edition...

a few artists joined us since we last met, leonardo of black
maiden and outraider of the recently formed shade/blend merge
will release some of their kick-ass ansi with us in the
future and our vga divison was finally brought to life by acryl
and sky of the well-known german demo crew legend design.
krash left us because of lack of motivation, but we're happy
to have a guest appearance of former mean scheme member
malice... looks like although she quit scene last year she
didn't quit writing and drawing... would've been a waste of
talent anyway...

so after the fights between german art groups have been settled ██▌████▌ ▌ █▀▌  i hope you guys can concentrate on drawing decent ansi again,
so a german artist doesn't need to be ashamed for the loads of
shit you produce...

until then... cya on mekka, x97 and of course on irc...
