I Revisit Diving

Sep 04, 2008 21:50

Wait to stand at the end of a very long, stiff diving board ten metres above a pool the bottom of which is painted the same blue as the sky would be if you could see it. Reminded that the color of the water is only a reflection of what's above it, shine a flashlight onto the scene and light up all the invisible people in their galoshes and bikinis. Check that the mirrors to the left and right are positioned to spotlight the fall. Then make sure there is no water at the bottom, and jump.

How many times will you flip before you hit the tiles?

Cheers

ramble, writing
