About

After a long period of abandonment, Leili has resurrected this thing.

So make it worth her while. Say things.

Oh, and also:

For Once, Then, Something

Others taunt me with having knelt at well-curbs
Always wrong to the light, so never seeing
Deeper down in the well than where the water
Gives me back in a shining surface picture
My myself in the summer heaven, godlike
Looking out of a wreath of fern and cloud puffs.
Once, when trying with chin against a well-curb,
I discerned, as I thought, beyond the picture,
Through the picture, a something white, uncertain,
Something more of the depths-and then I lost it.
Water came to rebuke the too clear water.
One drop fell from a fern, and lo, a ripple
Shook whatever it was lay there at bottom,
Blurred it, blotted it out. What was that whiteness?
Truth? A pebble of quartz? For once, then, something.

    Ah Leili, now I can connect with you electronically if not three dimensionally. I’m putting you on my blog roll at this very moment. Peace to you and yours.

    Hey Leili,
    Wow, you are beyond inspiring, I haven’t seen you in like decades (since college or high school time??) and I found your blog through some flickr pictures you had of Haifa that just blew me away. Your art, pottery, paintings everything is quite incredible. Just had to tell you that you are touching a lot of hearts, keep on going and create those brushstrokes of genius in what you do.

    Looking forward to seeing more. And by the way, is anything on sale???
    Love,
    Nishat Ruiter (formerly Nishi Gill)
