"Night flight to San Francisco chase the moon across America. God, it's been years since I was on a plane. When we hit 35,000 feet, we'll have reached the tropopause, the great elt of calm air. As close to the ozone as I'll get, I - I dreamed we were there. The plane leapt the tropopause, the safe air, and attained the outer rim, the ozone, which was ragged and torn, patches of it threadbare as old cheesecloth, and that was... frightening."Lydia Howland:"But I saw something only I could see because of my astonishing ability to see such things. Souls were rising, from the earth far below, souls of the dead, of people who's perished from famine, from war, from the plague... And they floated up, like skydivers in reverse, limbs all akimbo, wheeling, spinning. And the souls of these departed joined hands, clasped ankles and formed a web, a great net of souls. And the souls were three-atom oxygen molecules of the stuff of ozone and the outer rim absorbed them, and was repaired. Because nothing is lost forever. In this world, there a kind of painful progress. A longing for what we've left behind, and dreaming ahead. At least I think that's so."Lydia Howland: Hey. Did you like that.

Night flight to San Francisco chase the moon across America
00:00:05.004 --> 00:00:08.037
God it's been years since I was on a plane
00:00:08.068 --> 00:00:11.923
When we hit 35 000 feet we'll have reached the tropopause
00:00:12.012 --> 00:00:15.329
the great belt of calm air
00:00:16.048 --> 00:00:20.929
As close to the ozone as I'll get I I dreamed we were there
00:00:21.006 --> 00:00:24.649
The plane leapt the tropopause
00:00:25.002 --> 00:00:29.728
the safe air and attained the outer rim the ozone which was ragged and torn
00:00:29.092 --> 00:00:33.097
patches of it threadbare as old cheesecloth and that was
00:00:34.072 --> 00:00:36.529
frightening
00:00:37.016 --> 00:00:38.764
But I saw something only I could see
00:00:38.096 --> 00:00:42.999
because of my astonishing ability to see such things
00:00:44.012 --> 00:00:46.771
Souls were rising
00:00:47.096 --> 00:00:50.566
from the earth far below souls of the dead
00:00:50.076 --> 00:00:53.206
of people who'd perished
00:00:53.004 --> 00:00:56.404
from famine from war from the plague
00:00:58.002 --> 00:01:03.889
and they floated up like skydivers in reverse
00:01:04.998 --> 00:01:08.768
limbs all akimbo wheeling spinning
00:01:10.000 --> 00:01:12.999
The souls of these departed joined hands clasped ankles
00:01:12.008 --> 00:01:16.999
and formed a web a great net of souls
00:01:18.999 --> 00:01:22.245
And the souls were three atom oxygen molecules of the stuff of ozone
00:01:22.044 --> 00:01:26.999
and the outer rim absorbed them and was repaired
00:01:30.001 --> 00:01:33.994
Because nothing is lost forever
00:01:36.001 --> 00:01:39.999
In this world there's a kind of painful progress
00:01:39.008 --> 00:01:42.804
A longing for what we've left behind
00:01:44.008 --> 00:01:46.848
and dreaming ahead
00:01:47.092 --> 00:01:50.127
At least I think that's so
00:01:52.056 --> 00:01:54.999
That's it
00:02:03.999 --> 00:02:04.056
Hey
00:02:08.999 --> 00:02:10.001
Did you like that
00:02:14.001 --> 00:02:17.001
What I just read did you like it
00:02:18.001 --> 00:02:20.003
Yeah
00:02:26.001 --> 00:02:28.124
And what
00:02:29.999 --> 00:02:31.907
What was it about
00:02:35.013 --> 00:02:36.999
Love
00:02:37.999 --> 00:02:38.999
Yeah Love
00:02:39.999 --> 00:02:41.001
Yeah Mom
00:02:43.001 --> 00:02:45.488
It was about love
