For Lisa
Why do we gaze at stars?
Birds used to swim, before they could fly.
The longer we swim, the more likely we will grow wings.
The sailors, then, is that why they watch you?
Yes, otherwise they’ll never be free.
So, sailors are like fish caterpillars, waiting to emerge?
Yes, like an unborn star.
How are stars born?
Light, balance, and force.
Just those things?
Maybe some fairy dust.
What happens when you fall?
A million wishes are made.
Who do you fall for?
The purest of hearts.
Do their wishes come true?
Look for yourself.
