A weathered sign with handwritten text reads, "All I Want is for Morals, Honer [misspelled], and Love For God and Country to be Real Again!"
Morals, honer, and love for God and country

The side of an abandoned home that is falling apart reads, "I was six when I saw that everything was God, and my hair stood up and all that. It was on a Sunday, I remember. My Sister was only a very tiny child then, and She was drinking her milk, and all of a sudden I saw that she was God and the milk was God. I mean, all she was doing was pouring God into God, if you know what I mean."

Paperweave with multicolors on the last page of an art journal, accented with shapes of trees and the moon. Excerpts taken from Shakespeare’s Merchant of Venice are arranged on top: “The truth will come to light.” “The devil can cite Scriptire for his purpose” “… leisure answers leisure…” “… a good divine…” “… speechless messages…” Inside cover adjacent to last page has torn images of a sacred heart and immaculate heart.
Last page in journal. 🩷
