Something’s in the air
Sun is blazing yet
Leaves weeps on the ground.
I walked to the dark
To be become
Wrapped in silence deep
a cocoon shields weary eyes—
the crowd fades to dusk.

Emperor’s Elegance.

Holding in the void
— I carry nurturing to
reach divinity.

A black-and-white photograph of a person standing centered against a plain backdrop, illuminated by a soft halo of light from above. The figure’s body is strong and symmetrical, with multiple overlapping arms extending outward in graceful, mirrored gestures, evoking the image of a divine or mythic being. A dark cloth drapes from the figure’s feet, spreading across the floor like a flowing shadow. The lighting creates deep contrast, emphasizing the contours of the body and the radiating motion of the arms, suggesting stillness, strength, and transcendence.

You do what you can,
There’s always another day
To make this gift a present.

For this present day I say,
Thank you sharing your
Work here, cleansing burden
For many not to drear.

I think I posted about this for #BacktoSchool already. However, I'm doing it again: theeyeopener.com/2020/03/sex-...

*Note: this article was published before formerly Ryerson became Toronto Metropolitan University, which explains the title of the article ❤️

Sex work is real work for Ryerson students

Sex work is often misunderstood, but for these Ryerson students it’s both a viable form income and empowerment

Presence.

Great beings we are,
We are much more
Than this crude matter.

#Presence #Photography #FineArt #ShadowPlay #Surrealism #BodyArt #VisualPoetry #Mysticism #InnerLight #BeyondTheFlesh

A surreal black-and-white photograph of a muscular figure, half-submerged in shadow, their torso and arms emerging dramatically from the darkness. The body appears multiplied, as if more than two arms extend outward in fluid, spider-like motion. A faint, distant light glows above, illuminating subtle textures in the surrounding void. The image conveys presence, strength, and an otherworldly being transcending flesh and form.

I grew a tail for my session 😈
How will I shapeshift for you?

#monsterfucker #monstergirls #nsfw #blacksky #fatass #hairywomen #musclemommy

A femme with light brown skin of African descent kneels on a bed with their back towards the mirror. They put their phone over their shoulder as they arch backward to take the photo. In front of the circular mirror you can also see many witchy and sensual objects such as a hitachi wand, massage oil, scarves, and a flogger with a deer antler hilt. They are wearing intricate dark green lingerie that wraps around their body lingerie goes over their booty so the bottom meat sticks out and has a cut out so you can see the center cheeks meeting together at the crack. From between these cheeks grows a long black demon tail that is wrapped around their arm that they hold slightly in the air. Their hair looks black and slicked back. They wear dark lipstick. their jawline is strong. Their body is strong.

Cup runneth over,
Drooling upon sacred flesh,
Extracting its soul.

The image is a close-up shot of a muscular, dark-skinned male torso, glistening with oil. The subject's hands are cradling a metallic bowl in the lower center of the frame. The overall tone is dark and moody, with a strong contrast between the highlights on the sweat and the deep shadows. The focus is primarily on the physicality of the subject and the juxtaposition of his powerful physique with the seemingly humble bowl.

Beyond the temple,
Strength and fragility entwined,
Yearning for pure fire.

The image is a black and white, low-angle close-up shot of a muscular, bare-chested man holding in his erect genitals, creating a dramatic and intimate atmosphere. The overall mood is intense, sensual, and contemplative. The black and white palette lends a timeless and classic quality to the image, enhancing the feeling of vulnerability and strength.

I remember meeting him and reading his biography. He had a hard life growing up he’s able to have sympathy of others.

Submission (Shadow Work)

Phantoms whispering
My mind chases shifting shapes,
painful mirages

I must surrender

Shadow, hidden friend
What shall we shape together?
A healing for souls.

Black-and-white image of a masked figure in darkness, their overlapping, blurred arms unfurling like spectral limbs, evoking whispers of phantoms and shifting shapes.

Sentinels of the Dusk

The eyes watch the dusk
Cowries rest on beating chest
Shadows hum like drums

As the chaos ensues
I wouldn’t beg for peace—
That double edged sword

How much of its blades
Can I cut into a void—
To make………..Space?

The image shows a highly contrasted black-and-white photograph of a muscular man standing in front of a weathered wooden fence, with leafy branches above him.

He is shirtless, displaying well-defined abs and chest muscles, and wears a cowrie shell necklace. His pose is relaxed yet striking — one arm is lifted above his head, while the other holds a piece of clothing or fabric near his side.

The lighting casts deep shadows, emphasizing the texture of his skin and the contours of his physique. In this altered version, the man has four eyes — an unusual and surreal touch — arranged in two rows on his face, giving the image a dreamlike, otherworldly quality. The overall tone feels raw, moody, and artistic.

Cleanse. (What the Ocean Took)

It pulled
All of my impurities
Leaving marble.

Black and white photo of a shadow cast on a beach, showing a figure with a wide-brimmed hat and six raised arms, resembling a deity or spider-like form. The textured sand and water beneath create a marbled effect, with faint facial features visible within the shadow, suggesting transformation or spiritual emergence.

A dark, surreal image of a figure with multiple arms extended downward and outward, their muscular back lit in high contrast against a muted grey background. The limbs suggest a spider-like or deity form. The scene evokes a suspended, meditative state—caught between control and release.

Solitude (Dark Silk)

In silence, he sits
Not man, but As many.
His flesh, Braided from the
primordial ooze

He’s reborn in the
Void— Becoming the alter,
A shrine of his web

The setting is dark, with the body emerging from the shadows, suggesting themes of transformation, mysticism, and stillness.

Arachnotheosis
 The sheath, molts. splits in silence—
becoming the many,
from thread to throne.

A partially robed, six-armed figure stands in silent command, flesh emerging from black fabric like a creature mid-molt. The bare torso and outstretched limbs form a sensual silhouette, evoking divine submission or ascension. Shadows embrace the body as if concealing secrets, while the pose hints at ritual, power, and erotic transformation.

Mythical Anatomy.

Naked shadows
Dances upon the walls - As
