Chats with Calliope

By Joseph Langen

Sunrise in San Juan

JOE: Good morning Calliope.
CALLIOPE: Good morning Joe. You’re up an at ‘em early today.
JOE: I am. Despite predictions of gloom and even snow, a beautiful sky is unfolding as I type.
CALLIOPE: The joys of nature. What’s new.
JOE: As you know, I wrote an article about victim spirituality. This week’s newsletter which I will share with you soon was about reconsidering The Crime of Punishment by Karl Menninger.
CALLIOPE: I can’t wait to read it.
JOE: I got to thinking about both pieces and how they fit into my work at GO ART!
CALLIOPE: And?
JOE: I started working on a project idea for an art show which would feature art of victims and criminals in the same exhibit.
CALLIOPE: What would be the point?
JOE: To show the humanity of both and make them real in people’s minds. I’ll keep you posted.
