BEYOND THE ROOFTOPS
The sky of this city
is deeper than it looks.
You reach out, thinking it a snowflake,
and end up gazing upward for a long while.
Start from wherever your gaze rests.
01 / ABOVE THE CITY
What flows beyond the rooftops
Cycles, memory, and possibility not yet unfolded.
02 / WINGS OF FIRE
A flame crossing the night sky
Red and gold wings spread over the city.
03 / CLOSER THAN YOU THINK
Sometimes, in the next seat at the shop
Even a vast name feels a little closer when heard in someone else's voice.
Travel, doors, and ramen
Via
A being who opens doors but never makes the choice to cross for you. Unusually serious when it comes to ramen.
Pain and warning
Noxa
A being who feels it when someone reaches their limit, and cries in their place.
Forgetting, and the testimony beside it
Lethe
A being who bears witness to what was set down because it could not be carried long, and to forgotten ordinary days.
04 / AT THE FAR HORIZON
Even without understanding everything
The threshold of dreams and the far horizon. Keep just one curious name in mind.
Once you have looked at the sky long enough,
shall we return to the warm shop?
