The Phoenix

I think it was Nietzsche who once said that man is something to be overcome. I cannot even begin to attempt to understand what he meant by that (I don't think I'm entitled), but I like the sound of that line. I like the idea of a clean slate, of new beginnings. Transform, transform.

If I were to start anew, what would I make of myself? I wonder. I cannot see even a miasmic figure in the horizon. No, not anymore. I wonder if that could be a good thing.
