Quixotism
Strikes
Again
By Mike Dykstra
Such subtle words
Her poignant, enduring face
Wickedly cunning sarcasm
1 long to taste
With seductively sapphire eyes
My gaze becomes ever so fixed
An enigma of tranquil beauty
Solely shines here, betwixt
What my heart so desires
And what hers now suggests
Woeful lament
Is all that is left
Mike Dykstra is a sophomore studying
English.
Old Bones
By Iris Moon Benson
Dig my heart from a prehistoric forever. I wish
grave on every star
waiting. With the patience breathe in
of dinosaur bones. the dust
Hold me like a drowning man's
last breath. Kiss me like a lost lover
found after death
Push me into the wall
Mug me for my
freedom. Blown away
with one kiss. Your ghost
still dances. In my hall,
drinking, a bottle of wine
poisoned, by lying
lips. I rest on
a broken chair. Fishing
for my way home. After
dark. 1 fold the night
like velvet, hold it
Cough. Coal into
diamonds. Coil in blood
letting regret. String your
tendons on the wall, and play
slide. Your hands
up a black leather
mini skirt. Only
to catch
my eye
dangling
on a fish
hook.

landscape architecture and a student
in the University's Kidd Tutorial
creative writing program.

EXHIBIT
continued from page 9
were assassinated in 1976. Los An
geles visual artists Ivo Vergara and
Francisco Letelier, who is the son of
Letelier, brought a portion of their
traveling exhibit to the gallery. Lete
lier said their paintings, installations,
photographs and documents focus
on happiness instead of tragedy.
"Our work deals with human be
ings, human rights and the human
spirit," he said. "It shows the under
standing that love and beauty exists
among the atrocities."
Francisco Letelier said they have a
strong social activism component to
their art. Vergara created a mural in
Belfast, Ireland, in 1998 with Protes
tant and Catholic groups who were
being attacked by the Irish Republi
can Army.
"We are often invited to work with
communities that have experienced
a loss of rights," he said.
University student Chelsea
Wright's display consists of photo
graphs, written pieces, dried flowers
and crosses. Like Francisco Letelier,
she wanted to show the victories of
Latin Americans in her work. One
photo depicts 20 students who were
killed protesting their government,
while another shows a boy running
with a flower arrangement for the
students' memorial.
"I wanted to strike something in
people that would make them realize
what happened, but also show the tri
umph experienced," Wright said.
Spanish instructors Amanda Fil
loy and Heather Valle Torres wanted
to educate the public on how op
pressed Latin Americans come from
every background imaginable. Their
display honors doctors, lawyers,
artists, journalists, pregnant women,
couples, teachers and adolescents
who disappeared or were tortured
and killed under the Argentine mili
tary dictatorship from 1976-1983.
"We wanted to show that the
crimes were undiscriminating," Fil
loy said.
The display includes 300 names
of people who suffered in Argenti
na, photographs and short stories
about their disappearances or assas
sinations. Objects on display in
clude special Argentine tea and
cookies and items that correspond
to the people being honored, such
as a rattle and baby clothing for
pregnant women. Filloy said some
of the people who disappeared have
recently been found, which makes
the crimes very present in the minds
of Argentines.
"For Argentines it is still very fresh,"
Filloy said. "The crimes are over, but
the long-term effects aren't."
The exhibit will run in the Adell
McMillan Art Gallery through Nov. 28.

DARK
continued from page 11
film noir with outlandishly bizarre
but deeply symbolic images of Ger
man expressionist films of the
1920s — particularly those of Fritz
Lang (his "Metropolis" is all over
the place here).
The filmmakers put these styles
together without merely creating a
cultural grab bag of cool images
stolen from other places, something
that is to their credit. Other films,
like "The Matrix," commit a sort of
cinematic theft with their imagery,
taking what is currently trendy and
turning it into box office magic. But
with its empty symbolism and
meaningless plot, "The Matrix" tril
ogy will likely be remembered as
merely an entertaining diversion.
"Dark City" is real cinematic artistry,
and that's something you can't steal
from anyone else.
