(“The Mothership”, 2024, computer graphic encaustic collage) The Age of Abstract We live in a time defined by ideas and ideals When concepts and abstracts rule But what’s needed as a balance and antidote Is grounding in real life Relationships with others, real people and animals The real world, of rock and water, tree and sky And not an artificial world of AI Or even naturally human generated intelligence. We live in an artificial age When concepts and abstracts rule As the real world Waits patiently within us and without us. (12/30/24)
