Q8: Do you often connect seemingly unrelated ideas?

No specific examples come to mind, but this sounds like something that describes me – it just feels right. I thought that if I just began to write about it, perhaps it would come through in this writing. Maybe this gift is something that comes through natural discourse and can’t be forced. Nothing yet … maybe I need to think about it.

I’ve lost interest. It does describe me. Moving on now … I leave you with a poem I found.

I’ve begun my voyage in a paper boat without a bottom;

I will fly to the moon in it.

I have been folded along a crease in time,

a weakness in the sheet of life.

Now, you’ve settled on the opposite side of the paper to me;

I can see your traces in the ink that soaks through the fibre,

the pulped vegetation.

When we become waterlogged, and the cage disintegrates,

we will intermingle.

When this paper aeroplane leaves the cliff edge,

and carves parallel vapour trails in the dark,

we will come together.

I am the aerial.

In my passing,

I will send news to each and every star.
