Apollo's SheepApollo's Sheep
by Shannon Hilson

Amorphous and strange
Are these wishes we have
Like the sheep
That follow Apollo's lead
Like the secret jewels
Hidden under their wool
And the crystalline kisses
That appeared on my window
While I slept softly in fractions
And dreamed of him in days.

Impossible and fragrant
Are these wishes we have
Like the light that escaped
From the bedroom of Zeus
When distracted he left the door ajar
Completely unaware
He had just shown me Heaven
And now I know
What color skirt she wears
And how she dresses her hair for bed.

Mercurial and rare
Are these wishes we have
Like the snow on the beach

The Martyrby *wolfmorphine

Digital Art / Photomanipulation / Conceptual

Lately I have been finding myself watching a lot of documentaries on various educational television channels about religious phenomena... things like the immaculate conception, miracles, and stigmata. I suppose that is in part due to the season. For some reason I've always been especially fascinated by stigmata, and the type of faith that one must have within her heart to cause such a thing to occur, and I decided I wanted to play around with an image that included that and was developed around the idea of unshakeable faith. Through the natural process of artistic creation, I came up with this. It's a little darker than your average holiday piece, but the underlying message itself is a bright one of faith, sacrifice, and transformation. Stock used to create this piece comes from *mizzd-stock for the angel and sxc for the background.
