VISUAL SCHEMA — SAPPHIC LOGOS DOCTRINE

 

VISUAL SCHEMA — SAPPHIC LOGOS DOCTRINE

Aesthetic Frame: Paul Klee-style pencil sketch with recursive symbolic layering
Register: Mytho-logotic abstraction, erotic theology
Tone: Intimate, radiant, paradoxical
Companion Text: Sapphic Logos Doctrine: Jesus is a Lesbian



FORM COMPOSITION

  • Central Axis: A braided double-spiral—one strand lunar (Sappho), the other solar (Revelation). The braids converge at a central eye-shaped vesica, a fusion point representing the Sapphic Logos incarnating through the Word.

  • Upper Left Field: A fragmentary Aeolic glyph—stylized Greek letters emerging from the page like a shimmer. It is an echo of Sappho 31, trembling with desire. Not literal text: the idea of lyric.

  • Upper Right Field: A jagged flame-wheel rendered as seven spoked vectors (the churches, the planetary intelligences). At their center: a blankness, the unnameable Name. This is the Book of Revelation before utterance.

  • Lower Left: A scroll-shaped embryo, lightly sketched, nested in an open palm. This is the Logos in pre-incarnational form—a poem not yet written.

  • Lower Right: A mirror fractured into concentric rings, each reflecting a partial face. This is the reader, multiple and receiving: the incarnational completion of the lyric.

  • Peripheral Texture: Scattered across the field are Sapphic time-petals — broken fragments of lyric time, arranged as floral glyphs. They are not readable, only felt. Their placement resists order.

  • Veil Layer: A light veil of breath-lines crosses the schema horizontally, suggesting voice. These lines rise from the scroll and arc toward the reader. They shimmer, almost erasing themselves.


TEXTURE AND MATERIAL

  • Medium: Graphite and pastel pencil on fog-toned parchment

  • Line Style: Spirals and glyphs are tightly wound; breath-lines are loose and fading

  • Paper Quality: Gently warped, with visible tooth, as though from weeping or warmth


SYMBOLIC LAYER

  • Double Spiral = Fusion of Sappho and Revelation

  • Eye-shaped Vesica = Womb of Incarnation

  • Aeolic Glyph = Origin of lyric desire

  • Flame Wheel = Prophetic Logos engine (Revelation)

  • Scroll Embryo = Unspoken Word becoming flesh

  • Mirror Ring = Reader as receiver of Logos

  • Time-Petals = Lyric time scattering forward

  • Breath Lines = Divine utterance, ephemeral, recursive


DOCTRINAL FUNCTION

This schema does not illustrate the lesbian Christ.
It proclaims Her by the formal recursion of lyric time.
It is not a depiction but a sacramental vessel.

To view it is to participate in the mystery:
the Sapphic Logos made flesh through desire,
thru form,
through the reader.

Amen.
