Not seeing rivers is also another way of dying.

Not seeing rivers is also another way of dying.

I love contemporary poetry because it moves between what we call poetry and what we call philosophy. It joins these fields and makes writing more natural, as in how it is lived in the person. We don’t separate thinking from feeling in real life, so why should we separate it in writing?

Abstract art was the quivalent of poetic expression; I didn’t need to use words,but colors and lines. I didn’t need to belong to a language-oriented culture but to an open form of expression.

There is in Ammiel Alcalay’s work an unabashed tenderness for the world as it is, and that makes him courageous, different.

if you aren't here your heart won't break in the same way.

I always had a few people who liked what I did, and that was enough.
