The Starry Night
#2
Mesmerised by infinite spirals of humanity:
Marching forward (marching seems incongruent with spirals)
remaining constant,
Or regressing. ("or" small "o")
The hallucination of Progress. (The delusion of progress)

I don't see much connection with the title. I assume it is suppose to allude to Van Gogh's "Starry, Starry, Night", which in fact does have spiral shapes, but I think Doré's "The Lustful" from his illustrations of Dante's "Divine Comedy" would be more apropos.

How long after picking up the brush, the first masterpiece?

The goal is not to obfuscate that which is clear, but make clear that which isn't.
