About Angel Flying
How does an unborn baby learn to lie?
How does a lonely woman complain about more than half of her life?
How does a balloon at a dance pierce the appearance of a person?
How do a group of angels without tongues open the gates of dreams?
If you look at the drama with a magnifying glass, you will find that it is actually a human world that has been expanded several times. Its words come from a gleaming cycle of desire. The baby in the story seems to be sitting on a carousel about love and desire. The baby in the story seems to be sitting on a carousel of love and desire, with insight into human behavior, relationships and life.
When people wake up from their dreams, things will always look like they should. Children no longer believe in dreams and wings, adults no longer look for dances and magic, only the angel hang in the sky alone, remembering one day, people will remember that it is still flashing here, the air is still shaking and meteors will re-light the world.
