That is the conflict. I must confess, I am fascinated by the
ambiguity/acuity, stumbling across a stone, a poem, mostly
indecipherable, knowledge obscured, critical information masked,
buried. Archeological clues, left to the viewer to interpret, to
deconstruct, to reconstruct, the poem as landscape, language carved in
stone, permanence, immortality, transience, the unfathomable detritus
of communication? The lyrical made concrete, isn?t that poetry?

Thanks for asking Alan.

  Hi - can you say something re: how legible do you want the writing?
I'm
 not able to make it out much of the time. The images are quite
beautiful;
the legibility can be an issue since it seems as if the object was a
 Rosetta stone, i.e. something o the order of deciphering, but there's
not
enough of the language present... - Alan
