Delta_Ark’s work from 2005-2010 (with a few additional texts added afterwards) was deeply concerned desire: desire in VR for avatars, other intelligences, desire in the nature world, desire reflected in the landscape, the process of desire and lack expanding one’s subjectivity, spiritual stand-ins for desire and desire as a process of transformation. These themes are rendered in open verse, free verse, tanka, haiku, narrative, video poems and a novella.
