about the piece.
In Niobe's words, "We were in London, sitting in the courtyard behind a CaffĂ© Nero.  Right behind us was (I think) a Wren church, damaged during the World War II bombings and a church bazaar, where I took a photo of a row of knitted baby socks with little eyes."

about the piece.
In Niobe's words, "the twig is bent was taken with the camera propped on my kitchen table.  I edited out most of the color -- not that there was much to begin with -- leaving the image almost, but not quite, black and white."

sit sibi terra levis, Niobe

sit sibi terra levis
by Niobe


The halcyon days surround her now
The stormy seasons cease
Eyes closed secure to shutter in
Some easy dream of peace
No indrawn breath disturbs her rest
No crying stirs her crying
The earthly cradle rocks her to
A sounder sleep than mine
