Ah, I think this pretty much sums it up:

The following commands are the two direct image 'composite' methods 
available in ImageMagick...

   composite {overlay} {background} [-compose {method}]   {result}

   convert  {background} {overlay} [-compose {method}] -composite   {result}

They're obviously the same. Except, of course, if the result file already 
exists, then you are doing some other operation. And it's yet again a 
completely different syntax if you actually want to stack up *three* images.

Well, of course, how intuitive!  Move over PHP!



For the record, I still haven't figured out how "-write" is supposed to work.
