Hero Gone Bent - large oils on canvas

Zarathustra sent a Gnostic-dual-carraigeway west to greet the sun in Aragon, transporting the written word from ‘The Big One’. The vortex sent, the Stargate established, the Marys built their station. Tantric! With diamond hearts they spiralled jade-fire into the Cosmos. Heresy! But in 1244 the big boy Catholics interceded with their own story and genocide buried the book of love. Was the Cathari’s only crime that of hope and peace and transcendence? ‘Le Tresor Cathares’ went down and the Pope and feudal France ‘killed them all’. Death to civility, chivalry and tolerance. French was imposed on Roussillon in 1700.

...I hunt for more than the horror of what is apparent. I am not handing out clean needles and doses of methadone. Social workers do their job applying first-aid plasters to an eternal wound nourished by society...you cannot bury primal language...
