“Page by page I slowly and lucidly reread everything I’ve written and find that it’s all worthless … What grieves me is that my best is no good, and that another whom I dream of, if he existed, would have done better. Everything we do, in art or in life, is the imperfect copy of what we thought of doing.”

— Fernando Pessoa, The Book of Disquiet. Translated by Richard Zenith. (Carcanet Press, 1991)

Ars Poetica II

by Charles Wright

I find, after all these years, I am a believer — I believe what the thunder and lightning have to say; I believe that dreams are real,                                                       and that death has two reprisals; I believe that dead leaves and black water fill my heart.

I shall die like a cloud, beautiful, white, full of nothingness.

The night sky is an ideogram,                                                       a code card punched with holes. It thinks it’s the word of what’s-to-come. It thinks this, but it’s only The Library of Last Resort, The reflected light of The Great Misunderstanding.

God is the fire my feet are held to.

This is a perfect time to read the brilliant and unforgettable graphic novel(s) Persepolis by Marjane Satrapi, about growing up in Iran during and after the Iranian Revolution, and the rise of the oppressive theocracy that persists to this day.

Both graphic novels are available free online (Persepolis vol. 1, Persepolis vol. 2)

It also was adapted to a wonderful film (co-directed and co-written by the author) which is available to watch for free on Sundance Now (sign up for the free trial)

Hello my friends,

Almost 4 months after that horrible massacre in January in iran and after almost 88 days since the iran- Israel and USA war started and after almost 40 days since the ceasefire! I have almost normal internet again and I will try to post new things again. I honor the memory of all those thousands of innocent people who died 🖤

I'm not optimistic about this peace, this is the Middle East and there is smell blood! but we should continue

Iranian photographer Hossein Fatemi, offers a glimpse of an entirely different side to Iran than the image usually broadcasted by domestic and foreign media. In his photo series An Iranian Journey, many of the photographs reveal an Iran that most people never see, presenting an eye-opening look at the amazing diversity and contrasts that exist in the country.

It is Holocaust Memorial Day, I know there are people who thinks this day is no longer acceptable, but I think every genocide deserves a Memorial Day, doortje
