'Sometimes we see a cloud that's dragonish;
A vapour sometime like a bear or a lion,
A tower'd citadel, a pendant rock,
A forked mountain, or blue promontory
With trees upon't, that nod unto the world,
And mock our eyes with air ...'
> William Shakespeare, Anthony & Cleopatra

when we first moved to the inner west of sydney, under the flight path, people often asked me about the planes. did I hate the planes? I hate the planes. not because they sometimes make a din. not because they are sometimes inconsiderately frequent. I hate the planes cause they cause terrible wanderlust. each one that carves its way past my back step is full of the beginning of a journey - [we only get take offs, you see] - each passenger anticipating the unblink of the seatbelt sign as the craft passes pale blues and splodges of white and leaves its trail behind in the clouds. and I wonder where each one of them is going.
