I have been in the process of new-making myself, and, since I am not at
my normal home address, I have been doing no visual art since late November. I have been doing some thinking about art and
the artist.
Soon, I will continue the Blog somewhat more regularly. In the meantime,
here are some of the words to a song that is quite nice, used as the lead in song for the TV series "Joan of Arcadia" (also
quite nice). I take exception to the grammar. The line should read: "What if God were one of us" as it is a subjunctive
and conditional statement, not indicative. (Indicative statements would conform to "God is one of us." Perhaps, then, God
is each of us. Joy!)
What if god was
one of us
Just a slob like one of us
Just a stranger on the bus
Trying to make his way home
Just trying to make
his way home
Like a holy rolling stone
Back up to heaven all alone
Just trying to make his way home
Nobody calling
on the phone
Except for the pope maybe in rome
