My one wish: wings,
if not on me, then a steed,
to ride on the wind
like Bellerophontes on Pegasus -
like Daedalus -
to freedom.

You certianly are well versed in mythology. It was nice to see a tangible wish verses some of the more abstract concepts. I hope you do well in the competition and get your winged steed.
