The Stone of the Anointing last week at the holy sepulchure.

forty and a day

amir, today you are forty and a day
and each time you leave we have the same dream:
that you'd be back and play with us
all day long
you were here only three months ago
but to us it seems like years
when you arrive the room fills up with joy
and we love you
very much

nice, optimist and considerate
smart, successful and loving
and you will stay forever young
at heart

amir, 40 years have passed so fast
and you're still... picking your nose!
i didn't know how to end
so i will simply say happy birthday and
mazal tov

la vie est belge

"let the exiled, who came from asia and africa to seek some humanity among the belges, stay...
we, the occupants of the place st. lazar say thank you to the police, the mayor, the maraude [centre for urgent social action] to the neighbors and all the others, a big thank you from the bottom of our hearts "

shot today at place st. Lazare, 200 m. from the city center.

Stray Gilles

We went hunting on the Belgian national day, and look what we caught hiding between mountains of frites and gauffres-
an ostrich!

RE-recycling

a magic mountain just out of bucharest.
with thanks to alexandra who showed us the place.

An Ultimate Lullaby

a quiet saturday walk in bois de la basse, ended up, unexpectedly, in a big noise. but this too was pastoral enough.
