Once upon a time I had a FB page promoting May 22nd as #ImpossibleDay, marking the Arrival Day of #SunRa who implored us all to test beyond our preconceived limits. The Possible has been tried, said Ra, and it hasn't worked. But if we do one Impossible, others will follow.
Turns out, celebrating the Impossible has a long history with this dateβ¦

The greater future is the age of the Space Prophet,
The scientific airy-minded second men.
The prince of the power of the air.
The air is music
The music is power.

The Absurdly Poignant Poems of Sun Ra

Reality has touched against myth
Humanity can move to achieve the impossible
Because when youβve achieved one impossible others
Come together to be with their brother, the first impossible
Borrowed from the rim of the myth
Happy Space Age to you . . .

How impossible is the impossible
Yet the impossible is a thought
And every thought is real
An idea, a flash of intuition's fire
A seed of the fire that can bring to be
The reality of itself.
What is your impossibility?
I expect it may be bad form to plug a page on what we might affectionately call Legacy Social Media, so just this once...
"The Impossible is the watchword of the greater Space Age. The Space Age cannot be avoided"
