BABEL

Our society was born in Babel.

Babel is our society.

A symbol of its genesis and survival,

a tower which was never finished,

a cone log that rises like a spiral.

Today the tower has collapsed.

The spiral does not only rise

but rises and falls.

However it still exists.

It is in precarious balance

and it is nourished from an inner light.
