Lawrence,
Not sure. He might have commented on Kant's disinterested observer.
Mvh. / Yours sincerely,

Torgeir,
I trust that the poet is being ironic. ;-)

I stand before the ocean.
There it is.
There's the ocean.
I'm looking at it.
The ocean. I see.
It's like the Louvre.
Translation of *Havet* (*The Ocean*) by Göran Palm.

Is it linear progress:
Kingdoms, democracies, a
Global identity, reactionary
Brexits notwithstanding?
Similarly is there progress
From Elizabethans to
Augustans on down to
Our Rock-Star lyrics?
I wondered if my task
Was to move poetry in
Another direction.
Chomsky told us we
Must enter anarchy
And I saw that we had.
Fatigued, appalled
I might be. It thundered,
Impervious to
change.
It seemed enough here
Watching her fade year
By year to find the means
To write a new Inferno.
