ask21, Glider, wave flying

Glider pilots are like birds. They understand the winds and the winds are good to them.

Repetition #1

Marie Plassard

The place is dark

I wouldn’t be there

Everything that happens in this place is also vague

The walls have absorbed enough follies

That behind them alone escape stories that get lost

You are not at all where you thought you were

On screen, they draw the elements of the future one by one

The pace of exposure and aggregation

The map is drawn

The choice of a place made it methodical

More moral, laborious, repetitive therefore ruthless

The bridge no longer exists

The other side of the landscape where you wanted to go

Has changed

We will stay until it is light

The City will be covered by traffic noise

The path will act as a buffer

We’ll go home, we’ll close the curtains

Live as a lighthouse keeper

Giambattista Vico

I escape the certified real world as long as I live as a lighthouse keeper, as said Giambattista Vico :

“I persist, lonely and proud, on my adamantine island, far from the noise and confusion of the vulgar” .

Blue

For many years I have been searching the far edge of what can be seen

Horizons, anything far away

That distance is the colour of my emotions and desire

The far away where you are not

And where you can never fly to

You never arrive in for the blue world

Some things we have only as long as they remain lost

Some things are not lost only so long as they are distant.

Günter Gaus, Hannah Arendt

Everyone wants you to join their cadre of odd fellows or team building activities. Everything around is constantly changing and wants you to engage in the show.

But passivity, individual shame, vulnerability ,solitary contemplation explore the condition of humanity more than the pride of mankind, belonging, balance of power within the group, the hateful, belligerent, modding, exited functioning that give you comfort.

Curzio Malaparte, Franco B͟a͟t͟t͟i͟a͟t͟o͟-͟, Rino Gaetano

“I don’t like watching the show of human lowness, it repulses me sitting like a judge or a spectator, watching men go down the last steps of abjection: I always fear that they turn back and smile at me.”

“I already see my body carried away by people who blaspheme who are angry with me”.

“I invite you to travel in that country that looks so much like you. The languid suns of its clouded skies they have enchantment for my spirit of your eyes when they shine dim.”
