Not Martial Arts but Minerva's Arts. Through a Struggle, be guided by Philosophy, Faith, Art, and Science. Like a Forest from the Olive Tree that Athena, goddess of Wisdom, offered the Greek people a long time ago.
I’m waiting for you to hear your voice. I’m praying for you to read your words. What a long long long silence is passing and passing at home. Wherever you fight now, I’m calling your name, my dear son. Where do you fight now? My hair is turning whiter, my dear son. Wherever […]
Where is the board? Caissa is with me. Art, only art. Her ruthless breast can move. Endless bombardment. Without water and food. Trapped or luring? Playing chess. Not on the Mars’ tablet. Not with the mimick troops. Developing Bishop. Castling Rook. Manoeuvring Knight. Sacrificing Queen. Marching King. Pushing passed pawns. Where […]
How many legs? How many griefs? I’ve thought over. If I didn’t go. How many angers? How many tears? I think over. If I didn’t go. How many nights? How many tea breaks? I’ll think over. If I didn’t go. How many kisses? How many hugs? Before or after. Time would heal […]

From the front line town of Popasna, in eastern Ukraine’s Donbas. ‘Orcs’ everyday advance a little further. Food supplies in Popasna are expected to run out within a week. […]
The morning sunshine is sparkling and pouring into his house. A direct shell hit the roof and scattered rubbles all over. But could not succeed to stop a 300-year-old poet. Going for a moonlight stroll in Skovorodynivka. *Because I read the article about the Hryhoriy Skovoroda National Museum – a museum dedicated […]

Red-brick and stone walls. Blue sky and a white cloud. The glory of the heritage. Survived two world wars. Black smoke poured out. Red flames blazed up. Through a targeted shelling.
