talaria

Of motion is often born inspiration—Hermes, god of oratory, is represented with petasus and talaria—and I am enjoying motion.

Talaria, wings attached to the ankles or sandals of Mercury as the messenger of the gods.

As messenger of the gods he wears the Petasus and Talaria, and bears in his hand the Caduceus or herald's staff.

But the longer we plod on this earth, the deeper we stick into it; as must be when the foot grows heavy, having no talaria.
