​TWO YEARS AFTER HIS ALIYAH TO ISRAEL BARUKH REALIZED THAT HE WOULD ALWAYS BE DYSFUNCTIONAL AS A BREADWINNER AT ANY GIVEN PLACE ON THE EARTH. NOT ONLY IN A EUROPEAN METROPOLIS, BUT ALSO ON A WEE KIBBUTZ IN THE SOUTHERN ARAVA DESERT. AFTER VISITING THE WESTERN WALL IN JERUSALEM ON HIS FORTY-FIFTH BIRTHDAY HE STARTED TO WRITE AND SHARE POEMS AS SELF-THERAPY. SINCE THEN HE HAS BEEN DIAGNOSED WITH DEPRESSION, ADHD AND AUTISM. SINCE THEN HE HAS SELF-PUBLISHED FOUR POETRY BOOKS ABOUT HIS WANDERINGS ON THE SPECTRUM.
