dès vu (n.):
the awareness that the moment we're in, this moment right now, will pass. that our vivid experiences, our aching emotions, will all inevitably fade into the backdrop of our lives that is the past. like déjà vu in reverse, time slips away from us and the present turns into a memory - as if some future you is already looking back on it.

I believe Icarus was not failing as he fell,
but just coming to the end of his triumph.
