Replying to LO21516 --

So I had a friend who was a relative of Nikos K. the great poet who loved
to write 600 page poems. She labored for some years before she took one
of her own magnum opi (only three hundred pages) to the Master who saw her
because she was a relative. He looked at the poem and asked her to
express it in three pages.

She went away for a year and came back with the three pages to which he
asked for three lines. She went home and left the Master to the
non-related.

Except my admiration with bowed head.

Stau (which means "stay strong")
