    Ouroborus

    ​

    The unification of opposing sides.

    ​

    The rational gaze

    which separates before understanding

    is incapable of grasping the self moving and self organising 

    inherent divine vital principle, that governs life as we know it.

    To fully understand the principle is to become one with it, 

    and therefore all rational thinking must be dissolved.

    Where ever nature is revered as so,

    the serpent is revered, as symbolic of that divine life.

    ​

    One of my passions is to connect with the natural world. I do this by getting myself in the zone. I practice the Art of ways of seeing. 

    By emptying my busy mind  and allowing the initial feeling of separation from my environment to fall away. By this process my mind is better able to become still and i feel more present. In this process a relational opening emerges between the observer and the observed.

     By doing this i experience my deeper sensitivity and i am more receptive to the miniature life occurring around me. For most of the time I just enjoy connection away from the lens. Sometimes i capture elemental beings in my photography. I experience there being an endless abundance of a nature spirit of beauty that awaits us, if we just take the time to connect with the divine life force .

    In these videos i wanted to capture the newly hatched baby spiders that i was lucky enough to witness.

    ​

    Bare Bones

    Killer angel. 

    By sheer fluke it came 

    smashing through piles of oranges

    belly wide open, teasing eyes

    lick of life

    How to interpret these signals 

    a projection or

    electricty ?

    i want you

    i want you to want me 

    long standing love

    overriden by desire 

    let me go

    so i can savour this fall.

    ​

    ​

    Mind fear

    Sometimes it is all too much;

    lightening thoughts, igniting reactive responses.

    Fear and paranoia.

    Slowing down the vain monster.

    Take that breath underwater,,,

    release the last curl of wet thought.

    ​

    To heal, means to feel the suffering.

    To heal, means to feel.

    The other way is neurotic;

    in constant dread and fear.

    It chases you, haunts and plagues you.

    Like a virus, dormant at times active when triggered.

    Cloud

    Quieten your words, please!

    softness only.

    Realisations of the impermanence of it all.

    And there she is again, showing me, floating, moving enveloping the mass of everything.

    Dressed like a hag, with a twinkle of wisdom.

    Perception is a wide open smile.

    life is this mirror....

    turning inwards, towards.

    ​

    I lay bare bones scattered on rainbow coloured mountains.

    ​

    Ugly duckling

    You clipped my wings 

    i tore at my flesh

    You put me down

    i created self loathing

    You criticised me 

    i wanted to kill myself

    You ridiculed me

    i began to lie

    You shamed me

    i died

    My father,

    the root of it all.

    ​

    ​

    ​

    ​

    ​

    ​

    ​

    ​

    The fear of opening

    The gift of poison.

    Finally i have the cure.

    Antidote to reason

    all things endure.

    shedding is paramount

    shaking to my core.

    Wide open water

    together we are more.

    ​

    Tell me again,

    'that you wanted me to feel safe...."

    ​

    Beating butterfly heart;

    bird song, carry me away

    into the night, across the day,

    Stars come, light up my way

    for this whole everything.

    ​

    ​

    ​

    ​

    ​

    ​

    ​

    ​

    ​

    ​

    And then i dared to fall,

    speaking the unspeakable,

    I named my truth, coined my tongue

    into tangible matter, and then

    they fell out, spilling everywhere.

    Ha, the mess!

    the shame!

    what a thing to behold, together,

    seated on the lawns of heaven.

    ​

    Petal by petal she unfolded. The bud set free held with the tenderest of hands.

    Here she rested.

    But this is just words, jumbled semantics, what is really true is that each mind revolves differently in the way it rotates around love.

    ​

    Requests can always be made after truths are spoken .

    crack me open diamond coal.

    Beauteous suffering

    Dualism at the core.

    A felt sense beyond thought waves, interpretation.

    A perceived reality. Scotoma.

    ​

    Something is becoming, gripping at my heart.

    What is left but empty space waiting to be filled.

    Beyond static, everything moving, forever changing.

    The relationship to it is matter of thought.

    ​

    What controls this? My little heart pounds between sheets, nervous system electric.

    ​

    Where is the sanctuary? 

    A shattered, fragmented vessel carrying my essence beyond self.

    ​

    Am i broken?

    If, peace is stillness with a gentle smile

    then i am not, this.

    Rather I am static peace.  Defined slightly differently

    Oh beauteous suffering, in the presence of this now.
