Flames : Explorations in a world and psyche touched by fire

Flames

In this second extract from elemente, a collection of poems and photographs along elementary themes, is an exploration of fire through juxtaposition of image and text. Verses preceded photos, sometimes by several decades, while pictures derived from recent explorations in journalism to lend new interpretations to the words, extracted here from much longer poems. The pairings aim to hold a symbiotic quality, each imbuing the other with new layers and allowing the underlying temperature to cool.
