THE VINTAGE MAN
 
The
Difference
Between a good artist
And a great one
 
Is:
 
The novice
Will often lay down his tool
Or brush
 
Then pick up an invisible club
On the mind's table
 
And helplessly smash the easels and
Jade.
 
Whereas the vintage man
No longer hurts himself or anyone
 
And keeps on
Sculpting
 
Light.
