A Heap of Broken Images
“What are the roots that clutch, what branches grow / Out of this stony rubbish? Son of man, / You cannot say, or guess, for you know only / A heap of broken images, where the sun beats, / And the dead tree gives no shelter, the cricket no relief, / And the dry stone no sound of water.” The Waste Land, T.S. Eliot

Infinite River
Description: In a world of infinite change, looking for an unchanging pivot point. When I watch the river, I find that the river is always changing but still remains its shape with time passing by: even though the water is flowing, there is always a fresh stream of water replenished.
