About This Song
About "Ad Astra Per Alas Porci (Reprise)" by Hailey Whitters
A reprise that recontextualizes the album's opening motto, this time as a bruised, slow-burning coda. Whitters strips away the wink, leaving a haunting pedal-steel echo and a voice that sounds like it's staring at the sky, wondering if the pig's wings were ever meant to fly. Tension between hope and resignation.
