General (Vol. 2)

Creativity

  1. I see Vermeer crinkle in a fold,
    And then hear Bach descending in a prayer
    Before Racine departs in anguished love:
    In all of these I know that God is there.
  2. When Proust records, When Klimt draws a new line,
    When Mahler moves me to an unknown height
    I say: "A human being made this thing"
    But god made human beings that they might.
