Priori Proof



The grandeur and awe
of the Virgin's Dormition and Assumption
in to the arms of the Son,
entering the house with great sound,
with Peter at the head 
and John at the foot
of the deathbed
is rendered in record as fantastic manifest.
Really?
I set it up in my mind's own canvas
knowing the ecclesiastic canon of the Gospels
calls for at least six pictorial representations.
It always comes out overly surreal
even campy
but I have faith
that the story has true power
because 
as the Canterbury Ontologicalists
like to say
the inspiration for it all 
is something than which nothing greater 
can be conceived.
The greatness is limitless.
