Bio
so many conversations in the air today,
trees growing up and down the sky,
leaves whispering to other leaves,
chlorophylic philosophies podcast
on the wind, and this twisting trail
beneath my feet is walking me towards
the shaled-limestoned edge of an escarpment,
high point of this region, signpost of my childhood,
to where a city skyline embroiders the horizon
with comittments, some soulful, some tender,
but generally not, and I have always preferred
Colgate to Crest, lemon juice to salt,
always thought that the observable
explains the unobservable, and yet,
all my extracurricular thinking leads
me back to one implosive question;
why are dreamers thought of as
the ones who have not-yet arrived?
to summarize,
if you don't like the answer,
ask a different question

yes, but did you like my bio?
however, to reply to your comments, dead dreamers seem to be revered. Is this because they arrived-too-late or is it because they were ahead of their time?

I don't think visual artists worry very much about this when they speak in material languages. In the world of art (and hopefully beyond), if you think it's true, it is, and if you don't, it isn't. Flying machines, indeed!
interesting comments.
of course, my questions are rhetorical
you wrote:
"they show scant interest in bringing it to actual physical reality - the scientist most probably after centuries of work will be able to bring the flying machine on concrete earth"
both are capable of smooth space.
both ask "what if ... ?".
but how is a canvas portrait or a clay vessel any less real? even Michelangelo's David serves a real purpose in the lived world. perhaps those who get qualified as 'not-yet-arrived' are only those who have not yet met with commercial success ...
