The Story of Boys and Girls -
first we feasted on a sumptuous meal
followed by a sumptuous lust
accompanied by a sumptuous view of human behaviour.
of course, there is also
the beautiful language
and scenery.
A feast of sight and sound,
brilliant.
every character came off with
a sad story
behind every smile, every laughter.

Far Side of the Moon
"Bitterness is the obstacle to reconciliation"
Robert Lepage's character of Philippe
said,
as he gave his long story to the bartender
to explain why and who he was meeting at the bar.
As he walked away later,
he said
"I am speaking loudly, but I am not ridiculous".
Sputnik went into space,
the clothes spinning in the dryer,
do i want to lose my mind,
or just the gravity that kept me sane?
with my two feet firmly rooted to the ground,
i felt safe,
i thought so.
am i safe? really?
do i dare to let go?
do i want to let go?
can i let go?
we missed the chance,
we missed the time,
we missed each other.
it doesn't matter.
sputnik sweetheart.

Sputnik 1, launched on Oct 4, 1957, became the first artificial satellite to successfully orbit the Earth. It stayed in orbit for 6 months before falling back to Earth.
The second Sputnik satellite was launched on Nov 3, 1957 and carried a dog, named Laika, into space. Biological data was returned for a week before the animal had to be put to sleep.
The last Sputnik installment was intended to be a space laboratory for study of Earth's magnetic field and radiation belt. After its launch on May 15, 1958, it remained in orbit for nearly two years.
