The Fanatic
(“Anagogical Moments Merit Badge”, 2011, original oil)
“God, God, I see God”
Everywhere in everything
Not because God is something
But because IT is nothing
And so reflected in everything
The world is a chimera, a play, a mirage
And illusion of our own making
A trap we put ourselves in
For comfort and security
But God is always there to shake it up,
The one constant to guide us.
What else is there worth seeing
Worth thinking and talking about?
What else really is there?
