Pages 32 and 1, of The
lost and Found Season of the Most Pope Joey (V1 No1)
Page 32 Hello number 5 from
Toc Fetch. You are holding my first work in comics, I have always been
fascinated by our curious ability to read entire stories out of single
images. Every image carries its trajectory in a gestalt of clues. In this
book of (splash-page stylie) diptychs I present random snapshot moments
delineating the politic of a single interior persona: (a beloved Daimon
of mixed pleasures) PopeJoey Fool.
Many people live with strong interior Voices and find
life styles to authorize and validate their multiple-soul. When one of
those Voices grows in strength and independence, (thru attention practiced
and paid, knowing that most Voices eat oppression), eventually you must
bargain in good faith for a working peace or die. Learning to listen
carefully, with the smallest crust of identity, to the distinctive Voices
of that interior place, "Schizotopia" and then patching together
a religion of one . . . self, while living sane in the daylight, is
a life. Does this sound familiar? If so then this book will make you smile.
