Art can form and spiritualize
man's consciousness.
Such a poet is willing
to be transcended by his work.
The union of priest and poet
are among the highest human
possibilities and states that
the Perfect Priest
and the Perfect Poet are one.
Both are concerned with the connection
of the interior and exterior elements of life.
Exellent poem, Dr. Tony, but only God is perfect, human beings, so the priest either the poet is only fantastic but never perfect, God is the Only Perfect One, but this poem is brilliantly thought and written by you, Dr. Tony, my great respect
Tony, your excellent poem perfectly describes the outstanding poet-priests Thomas Merton. And, of course, the extremely talented Kostas Lagos.
