The good people of my neighbourhood decided this is the right time for an art event. It's called Public Works, the idea being that art by locals is displaid in local houses.

Nothing Twice
Hardly 2 generations ago my family could speak Polish. Now I need translations.
Wislawa Szymborska's Nothing Twice
With smiles and kisses, we prefer
to seek accord beneath our star,
although we're different (we concur)
just as two drops of water are.

ויסלבה שימבורסקה, שום דבר לא קורה פעמיים
מחויכים, חצי מחובקים,
נתור אחר אחדות בשנים,
אף כי אנו נבדלים תמיד
כשתי טיפות זכות של מים.
