A long time ago,
In a place quite near here,
There existed a degenerate called Socrates,
Who thought all art was bad.
Later, some time later,
The pious used art to glorify God.
And then came Baumgarten -
And who is Baumgarten, you might ask?
He 'invented' the word aesthetics.
Later came the Modern era.
Oh, my God, what a load of kitsch!
Maybe someone can sort out this mess.
Too many 'isms, not traditional art,
Artists in ivory towers, articles
For specialists, written by specialists.
Why can't we turn the clock back?
