May the light of this day allow each one of you to see the reflection of your true self and make peace with it -

Merry Christmas to All wherever you are, no matter how near or far you are from your true self. What makes us strong is being among people who love us just the way we are.

Happy Holidays to All -

Nadine's Room, Lumiere of Perfection. Greenpoint, 2010


12/12

East Village is covered
by tears this morning
the streets, the doors,
the windows
wet
crying
begging
for some Light


Nadine's room,
though is untouchable
from any tear
It embodies the
Light of the Perfect silence.
things left there waiting
without demanding more Light
to see or feel

Left here
without demanding
more light
to see or feel

I am peace-full

Sketch of Eidothea by Fotis Politis, Hotel Delmano - Brooklyn 2010

5 Nymphs it is time to


Tell Everyone
Music
is Swinging around me
tonight

at Hotel Delmano
found the warmth
of the Volcano

Love

that didn't allow Eros
to come near surround me

with his fear

Do not look at me
in the eyes
I have already lost
the sight of one love
cant bear a second one to lose

Look down

cover your faces

with my hair

and lets move fast



The music of Apollo
is swinging around me
from afar -.

- Eidothea, Hotel Delmano Dec 5th -Brooklyn 2010

Love for that boy -.

- Myth of Today or Appropriation of Ancient?

Tribeca - New York, 2008


What is Myth Today?

Myth is a type of speech.
Myth is a system of communication, that is a message. Since everything is a type of speech, everything can be a myth provided it is conveyed by a discourse.

- Roland Barthes, book "Mythologies"

According to you, could the life of a young girl who left Greece to find new life in America become The MYTH OF TODAY?
and how this myth would be of Today?
by continuing the Ancient Mythology?
or by creating a Modern One?
