o! for a horse with wings!
20 Oct
One thought has been heavily on my mind for the past few weeks.
I want to fly.
I look up at the sky and want to take one huge leap and soar…
When I’m on a motorbike, I close my eyes and imagine myself a thousand feet in the air, the wind rushing by my face…
At night, I lie back on the grass and look at the stars, and wonder what it would be like to look down at the earth from the sky…
My mind has been working overtime to figure out how to fly, even for the briefest of moments, to just float in the air…
Icarus, Pegasus, and Hermes fill my dreams, and haunt me in my waking moments.
How does one fulfil a yearning this strong?

Solo if your serious about flying, I over heard while in a taxi that passed those bu kids that usually hang around shop rite (near the clock tower) that the reason why the kept on fiercely sniffing at their shirt sleeves and sometime a ka mineral water bottle is the flying magic they have poured over it. not sure if this bees what your looking for but I swear I saw them “flying” and all their problems seamed accomplished.
I still think it was aviation fuel they had but I’d rob one of them just to see if you’ll really fly. tell us if you go ahead
