a light impulse, a flying mathematics

i fly in dreams, i know it is my privilege, i do not recall a single situation in dreams when I was unable to fly. to execute every sort of curve and angle with a light impulse, a flying mathematics—that is so distinct a happiness that it has permanently suffused my basic sense of happiness. - friedrich nietzsche. or if you prefer now i am alone with the dead, flying off bridges, hurling myself like a beer can into the wastebasket. i am flying like a single red rose, leaving a jet stream of solitude… -anne sexton. (who’d have thought ol ’ freddy would ever represent the optimistic viewpoint?) anyhow the most fun i’ve had all day is flyguy by trevor van meter. (via robotwisdom)
