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.

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
goes forth with the dawn,
As a lone bird, soft winging,
so restlessly on

Afar o’er life’s turrets and vales does it roam
In the wake of those echoes
the heart calls home.

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

I’m folding up my little dreams
Within my heart tonight, And praying I may soon forget
The torture of their sight.

A woman with a burning flame
Deep covered through the years
With ashes.
Ah! she hid it deep,
And smothered it with tears.

Why did you let your eyes
so rest on me,
And hold your breath between?
In all the ages this can never be
As if it had not been.

The earth that made the rose,  She also is thy mother,
and not I.  The flame wherewith
thy maiden spirit glows  Was lighted
at no hearth that I sit by.

Never shall we see thee,
thine eyes glancing.
Flashing with laughter
and wild in glee,
Under the mistletoe kissing
and dancing, Wantonly free.

Grant me but a day, love,  But a day,  Ere I give my heart,  My heart away,  Ere I say the word  I'll ne'er unsay.

I just gave up very early on, and just started labeling everything “adult” even though I do nothing overtly sexual.
