Another transplant from Twitter; will be working on setting up this account in the coming days. Meanwhile, the commentary and set below can give you an idea of what I’m about (contains nudity). Shot with Minolta lenses and Kodak Tri-X.

And in our life alone
does Nature live:
Ours is her wedding garment,
ours her shroud!
And would we aught behold,
of higher worth,
Than that inanimate cold
world allowed

What this strong music
in the soul may be!
What, and wherein it doth exist,
This light, this glory, this fair luminous mist

Though I should gaze for ever
On that green light
that lingers in the west:
I may not hope
from outward forms to win
The passion and the life, whose fountains are within.

Late, late yestreen
I saw the new Moon,
With the old Moon in her arms;
And I fear, I fear, my Master dear!
We shall have a deadly storm.

Those sounds
which oft have raised me,
whilst they awed,
And sent my soul abroad,
Might now perhaps their wonted impulse give

But each day brings its petty dust Our soon-choked souls to fill, And we forget because we must And not because we will.

Like children bathing on the shore Buried a wave beneath, The second wave succeeds before We have had time to breathe.

Below the surface-stream,
shallow and light,
Of what we say
we feel--below the stream,
As light, of what we think
we feel--there flows
With noiseless current strong, obscure and deep

Who renders vain their deep desire?
A God, a God their severance ruled.
And bade betwixt their shores to be
The unplumb'd, salt, estranging sea.

Dotting the shoreless watery wild,
We mortal millions live alone.
The islands feel the enclasping flow,
And then their endless bounds
they know.

There are the flowers
which mourning Herakles
Strewed on the tomb of Hylas, columbine,
Its white doves all a-flutter
where the breeze
Kissed them too harshly

In pale virginity; the winter snow
Will suit it better
than those lips of thine
And pluck that amorous flower which blooms alone,
Fed by the pander wind with dust of kisses not its own

One pale narcissus loiters
close to a shadowy nook,
where half afraid
Of their own loveliness
some violets lie
That will not look
the gold sun in the face
For fear of too much splendour

And like a strayed
and wandering reveller
Abandoned of its brothers,
whom long since June’s messenger
The missel-thrush has frighted
from the glade

Upon the upland meadow
where too soon rich autumn time
Will lend his hoarded gold
to all the trees,
And see his treasure scattered
by the wild and spendthrift breeze

The heart of a woman
falls back with the night,
And enters some alien cage
in its plight,
And tries to forget
it has dreamed of the stars

Within my heart tonight, And praying I may soon forget
The torture of their sight.
