You want #erotic #poetry ? In #Yiddish ? Move over Coleridge, and go back to Xanadu, Kubla.
White days slide down and swim away with the black dews of the night / Hours – minutes / that crumble into bits with the shattering of glass… / and only in my one moment does the deep joy of your fecundity arise / millions of moments that fly to you and clamor convulsively / for the treasure of your womb.

@datum
But yeah, not as good a showing as the spir of the moment @accordionnoir episode where we played eight or nine versions of “Bei mir bist du shein” (hard to find with many spellings in various languages, not only #Yiddish) -
would love to see this live. some real great friends in this lineup. I'm actually someone surprised it's being produced in Germany and at a big festival but then again I haven't seen the details.

You pick up sayings when you live around wise people.
"Az men iz a ganef, iz men a ganef."
If you're a thief, you're a thief.Seems to be the case with many of our politicians.
If I could end one thing to help humanity the most — I'd pick greed. It's the worst factor in the world today.
We have enough for all of us. But we store it away and pretend to be important. Amass wealth and fame. Surround yourself with people who tell you you're better than others.
We are all G-d”s children. Wealth of this world means nothing to Him. Sooner or later you answer for your treatment of others.
"Love thy neighbor."
Have you?

"What happened to #Yiddish #theater, how it came to be, why it faded and how it made a comeback are among the questions explored in “Immigrant Songs: #YiddishTheater and the #American #Jewish Experience,” a #documentary #directed by #JeffJaneczko.
The 46-minute documentary, the first produced by the #MilkenArchive of #JewishMusic (where #Janeczko is a curator), traces the remarkable legacy of Yiddish theater in #America — from its Eastern #European roots to its extraordinary modern revival. The #film blends #archivalfootage, original #music and scholarly insight to bring to life a cultural legacy that continues to resonate today.
You don’t need to be a Yiddish speaker or come from an #Ashkenazi background to appreciate the charm of Yiddish music and theater. The two, in fact, are deeply intertwined and have gone hand in hand since their birth in Eastern Europe."
