Aug 9 An Evolving Life. Compliance

An Evolving Life, Life Ramblings, Meryl Spiegel, Poetry, Art Plus Conversation

Compliance

Standing up in prayer
Benched still in the lair
Temple vacant so sublime
Thumbs press working overtime
Trunk poses nude up front
Eyes strain bearing the brunt
Noses bump about face
Ears point up just in case
Light cuts thru the silence
No sign of compliance

Meryl Spiegel

Meryl Spiegel is a photographic artist, whose work reflects her relentless curiosity whether she is on the street, in the fields or by the water. A former journalist for The New York Times with an MFA in Creative Writing, she now focuses primarily on her artwork, but is thrilled to share her thoughts here about how her creative life continues to evolve and expand.

“I picked up a camera years ago thinking it was the only way I could render humanity and its wonders,” she recalls. “Then three years ago, I began to draw and ultimately paint, not knowing I could.”

Also an educator, Meryl teaches photography as well as yoga, a passion that fuels her creativity off the mat. Regularly, she conducts photographic workshops at East End Arts. Last year the Center Moriches Library was awarded a grant from the NY State Council on the Arts to fund a Composition class conducted by Meryl and offered free to its patrons. This summer and fall, she will be conducting more classes at the library.

Meryl lives with her husband, Steven, and her hound dog, Copper, in East Quogue —where she raised her two daughters, Lauren, a Westhampton real estate agent, and Jaclyn, a financial analyst in Manhattan.
