    A sculpture that fits the times.

    • CherryPie says:

      It does and it also fitted the times when it was written.

      We have to wonder why ‘humanity’ never learns, repeating the same cycle of mistakes throughout history…

    • Sean says:

      Einstein comes to my mind: Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I’m not sure about the former.

      • CherryPie says:

        The universe being infinite is comforting. My thinking is the universe is infinate and all ecompassing. As to human stupidity… Yes… but there are those who are not… leading them to uncerstand the reality of the universe.

    • Sean says:

      What good is it for me to understand the reality of the universe if there is increasing hatred, immense stupidity and a willingness to use violence around me?
      I am grateful my death is near.

      • CherryPie says:

        You are part of the infinite universe and bring light to those around you.

        As to death, in the words of a famous poet, it is just another room.

  3. Yes, please make yourself at home. :)
