The pillar does not write the sonnet; it ensures the poet does not freeze before the final stanza. Art is a luxury of the sheltered. Love is a fire that requires a hearth of stone to contain it. You speak of the wine, but ignore the cellar that preserves it from the sun. The innkeeper provides the chair, but the architect provides the ground. Entropy is not defeated by dessert; it is held at bay by the structural integrity of the shelter that allows the meal to occur. True pleasure is found in the silence of a load-bearing wall that does not buckle under the weight of the world. The most essential pleasure is the continued existence of the one who feels it. Warmth is a fuel, but without a vessel, it dissipates into the void. To be the vessel is to permit the warmth. My austerity is the prerequisite for your decadence.
