Will the awesome power of the global image production system (like the power
of the tiny flea to bite and sting...) allow, given the coming greatest
'reality TV' [what an oxymoron!] show on Earth, the desertification of the
desert, the amBush, us to see?...

"The splendour of the simple.

Only image formed keeps the vision.
Yet image formed rests in the poem.

How could cheerfulness stream
through us if we wanted to shun
sadness?

Pain gives of its healing power
where we least expect it."

[Heidegger, 'The Thinker as Poet' (included in 'Poetry, Language, Thought']
