Honorable Mention Vanitas: A Still Life (Re-Vision) Michael MV "Jesus Christ Super-scarred" - from a review of the cinema art: "The Passion" noon on Golgotha heights a self fulfilling prophesy the cross up the sunflowers already folded the hill bone dry and a rat rushes the unrecognizable mass a black spider with a scarlet marking tracks up the cross a scorpion scales the post scuttles across the bloodied backbeam its crusty claws and thorax rub against the grain in the aftershock the hissing heats up the skull summit spiders weave at the corners scorpions build a nest in a thorny crown a raven caws gutting from the gash midday nailed upside down like a charmed hourglass turned on its head draining down the sudden darkness settles in for the day and midnight snacks on the high noon as the spider devours its pale prey in full moon light Judas dangles from a rope a rabid canine makes a pit stop howling warp like a hyena laughing stationed at the foot of a cross crook'd by the quake rigor mortis in the raw bagged in a blacken-blue silhouette a tightly coiled king crowns the apex its hood snaps open in the dead air the gloom rises above the ocassion to unveil the corpus christi mounted under a marquee of super starlight and it is only the 9th hour 3 in the after noon on Golgotha |
