Brevity is the width of soul.

Teleological

I hope one day you'll tell us what happened. Who made it possible? Why? If a miracle was necessary, why this miracle in particular?

All we know is that for a single second flesh was made ductile to the desires of the soul. A hundred thousand new NBA players were born that second. A million beautiful people. Half that number of soccer stars. Illness cured, big and small, in those who were ranting against their bodies at just the right time.

But only those. Is that justice? Do tell me, daughter, because I don't know.

And you are the one who was looking at the stars, wishing you could be an angel.

.finis.
