Technically Perfect
('Ancient Wisdom')


		A Poem by John B. Moss 03/22/98	"Mozart" (The music!, not the bust!)

There are things we take for granted, like
Images photographed; flash-copied and
Made-to-order-reality,
Eye-candy we cherish in albums,
Lasting (?) Memories which we
Evoke each time we open the album and
Set eyes on them, page after plastic page -
Such is the heritage we leave our children.

And when we Stop! Speculate -
Recognize the limitations of
Those special artists who lived
In days when these fruits of
Science were not available -
The music, the artwork, the
Statues reflect our inheritance!

© 1998 - John B. Moss Inspired by the words of James Elroy Flecker (died: 1915), who wrote "To a Poet a Thousand Years Hence", I wondered if perhaps I might find a similar message by looking at the authors of 1,000 years in the past...
