Beauty is a question of thought and the urge to create it …What does futile mean? So is a poem futile, is putting four words in a line futile? I do not think so. I think, as I said before, that the deep emotions in my life have come from artists, certainly not nature. Or nature as well, but elaborated mentally, intellectually. In fact I think art is the least futile thing there is…
