To never fall, one must lay down
as flat as possible, where erosion
cannot happen, according to the
predictions of every reinsurance
professional actuary, hiding behind
a wall of rectangles and percentages
and five hundred year event horizons
which you might lay your bets upon
were you a billion air freight:
box with the shallow way your
flight is weighed down,
the suggestion that birds might
be so light and yet still fly,
would make your grounded
confidence tremble and
reject every premise of
hollow bones and brilliant feathers.
