A Mystic Poet Is Transcended By His Work.

Rating: 5.0


A mystic poet is transcended
by his work.

Artistic discipline
and religious discipline
can complement one another.

Religious ascetics
have much to learn
from the natural
asceticism
of the artist.

It is unself-conscious,
organic, and integrated.

It does not run the risk
of becoming
an end in itself.
