Kakki alluded to Joni's take on the war not being political...could it be related to biblical prophecy? I would love to hear Kakki & Steve's interpretations of this photo, if they feel it is appropriate to discuss. My first impression was that the cross looked like the Red Cross logo. I really do feel the contrast of peace in the natural world (her garden) vs the destruction of the towers. Such a duality of reality.

It sure does look as if she (or whoever the hand belongs to) is holding a Bible, maybe a complete Bible, maybe a New Testament, since the word "Gospel" means "good news" and the word "news" appears on the book cover under the cross - - I have not been knowledgeable on the imagery in Joni's work... so I am very interested in anyone's interpretations of that drawing, including Kakki and Stephen who may have discussed these paintings with Joni -<<< ******************************************** Kate Bennett www.katebennett.com sponsored by Polysonics www.polysonics.com Discover the Indies at Taylor Guitars: http://www.taylorguitars.com/artists/awp/indies/bennett.html ***
