It would be my first voyage to outerspace. Will it be cold, will it be hot? At this point, i didn't really care. I just wanted some peace in my life
When i looked up to the sky, where birds sing and sail, and aeroplanes glided. I knew i didn't see far enough above me.
The granites and schists of my dark and stubborn country led me to the idea of moving, somewhere far away, somewhere where light filters through every crevasse, somewhere bright where rainbows are picked, like ripe mangos, off trees.
To use the lines in a prose piece
“The granites and schists
Of my dark and stubborn country.”
–Nan Shepherd, “The Hill Burns”
from In the Cairngorms (Edinburgh: The Moray Press, 1934)
