The Obvious Answer
after Road, dir. M. Kijowicz, 1971
When coming to a fork in the road, become two of you. Or rather, become two halves of you. When a half of you comes to a fork, let it dream of the other half, pull that half from the dream, and let it go down the alternate path. Continue this way. Walking, dreaming of parts of yourself, and sending those parts away.
