"Using The Past In Pastich" [Reflections On Book - 100 Ideas That Changed Graphic Design Stephen Heller and Veronique Vienne - # 5]
All past is present, if it works its way
Into our hearts and minds, and lets us play
With treasures new and old, drawn from the shelf
To celebrate, and grow deep in one’s self.Though “I’ve been there” comforts on our way
Down present-future roads, now, as today;
We oft can’t see symbols which will speak
To future folks – we can’t even peak.“Historic” is defined as fifty years
In writing fiction based on history’s tears,
And laughter, blindness, insights new,
And all the crazy things which humans do.Grace is much greener on the other side
To us, as we now in Your love abide;
As we look down below, we see just sand –
Turns to mirage as we view future-land.Thanks Lord for this.
