let the bombs fall heads roll people’s knees break let presidents change, human rights, politics, the shift of power move from the right wing to the left and back to right again and witness how fast November nights turn to days let new movements turn into history lies turn into facts see how contemporary arts in years get a name and be replaced by the new work of art, "Brain in the canvas-- Splash!" let writers die, poets, painters, prophets those who preached soul and those

The Trieste Joyce School - Day 7

Participant Diary, June 25th – July 2nd, 2016 When you reach the end of a journey, what can you do, but sum up the entire experience and try to weigh it?
