What
would
Hieronymus Bosch
do?
Righteous
Indig-Nation
Devil's Details: Orwellian Dickensian and the public
good
Among others to be considered for visionary status, A George W. Bush
comes to the fore. He and his apostles, or pundits or court -- whatever they may
be called, are afflicted with the same calling.
The beauty of this risky
scheme on which they are embarked is: it’s win win.
If –– through
the conviction of a moral code –– a laced alchemy of social darwinist
real politic, wrapped with evangelical correctitude, sprinkled with compassionate
conservatism, prevails over the dark forces, who wins? If they lose -- we all,
the chosen ones of course, will pass directly to heaven. If they win, we will
be living in a police state for the foreseeable future. Either way it will be
like heaven on earth.
Is there a difference between, the Orwellian and the
Dickensian?
Devil's Details:
nimbusless painting by El Bosco, what would El Bosco do?
Angels / Devils and . . .
One question?
Is George
Bush the next Messiah or an avenging angel? If so, who is Paul Wolfiwitz, Lon
Cheney and Donald Stubblefield? Are they linked in some vast Biblical Conspiracy
or are they making it up as they go along?
Sure hope it turns out alright.
What would Hieronymus Bosch do? Why would he do it? El
Bosco’s
painting at one of the stations of the cross depicts
a human mass that does
little to differentiate Jesus from
the crowd and what a horde it is. Jesus
looks pretty common
without royal trappings but for his cross to bare. No
nimbus; nimbuslessness does level the field . . .
Thaddeus Quella, also nimbusless
