The artist seeks eternal truth,
ignoring the eternity around him.
He admires a Babylonian temple column
and scorns the factory chimney.
How are their lines any different?
When the era of coal-powered industry is
over, we will admire the remnants of chimneys
as today we admire the remains of temple columns.
