Feathers can be the cradle of a hypnotic dream, a lap of Hypno, close to the death of Thanatos, his twin brother; or they can be victorious wings, like those of Nike, the goddess of Victory. Wings that also weave the nests of a flight to which they sing. The chrysalis stops the instant: it is present, it is the incubator-urna, the refuge of the newborn. But it is a polysemic nest: it is container, it is content.
