Aspirant writer. Here for prose, poetry, etymology, linguistics, anything at all to do with words. Obsessive over horror, metre and allusion. #1 Keats fan.

I’ve no more space in my brain for words and lines and pages so I’m going to store some here. I hope you can enjoy them too ♥️

Unconscionable to let the great Donald Justice’s centenary pass without posting a poem. This paean to childhood from his debut collection seems only fitting.

Proust summer. Seeing her everywhere. Having her never. Intense ruminations on sexuality. Going to the seaside. Suffering.

I read Mary Shelley’s ‘Transformation’ because my mind is rotted by short form content and it was very charming and now I will be reading the largest tome I can find :)

@astersbookshelf it’s a lyrical ballad, so wouldn’t take particularly long at all to read coleridge is a brilliant and frenzied writer and it has the repressed lesbian vampirism to rival carmilla, with a bit more of a fairy-tale plot—id recommend wholeheartedly ♥️

I will soldier through the last stages of my sniffles which, in comparison to these literary examples, seems light. Afterwards, I hope you and I will pursue our many unknown follies with hunger :)))) #booktwt #books #literature

The speaker leaves the café and chases him across a dark, amorphous and inaccurate London until early morning. It shows the body instantly rushing to injure itself after it’s unleashed from its ailment; so silly and so human to use one’s newfound clarity to find a new weakness.

After quite a horrid ailment halted my productivity for the last week, I’ve thought over how often convalescence crops up in literature, especially of the late 19th century. Bleak House, The Moonstone, Il Piacere (GOAT), it often facilitates incredible personal growth: (1/9)
