This nice portrait of Kleptesvirgo was taken by Kelly MacDonald (her Ani DiFranco – slash – Theodore Roethke inspired chestpiece is by Seth Wood at Daredevil in NYC). Oh, and by the way — happy birthday!
Let seed be grass, and grass turn into hay:
I’m martyr to a motion not my own;
What’s freedom for? To know eternity.
I swear she cast a shadow white as stone.
But who would count eternity in days?
These old bones live to learn her wanton ways:
(I measure time by how a body sways).

that must be the most beautiful chestpiece i have ever seen. cute girl! happy birthday!
Happy Birthday, Foxy Anne!
super super cute!
beaaaautiful.
that chestpiece is just lovely. and she is, too…
but what i love most about the photo is her (perceived?) bashfullness – the camera looking down on her, her off-centered ness, the raised eyebrows, cute half-smile, wringing hands…anyway, nice work.
The chest piece is so well suited for her body, and done so well!
Enjoy your birthday,lady! 🙂
It’s the love of my life.
*SWOONS*
That’s such a beautifully designed peace and such a charismatic photo. They really leap (off the body and off the screen).
She’s so cute!
She is SO CUTE! And such a fabulous tattoo.
I would love to have me a girl like that 🙂
so she’s not a dwarf?
nope.
I saw her in person and she’s typical girl height, she isn’t a fuckin dwarf
woohoo Anne! 🙂
the way she holds her hands is so cute!!!!
Hey, I was just bored and browsing the modblog and who should I see? I love the chest piece, and I love you. I miss you tons.
Love,
Travis
The chest piece is from Roethke’s poem “The Waking” and says “I feel my fate in what I cannot fear” – it is not from his poem “I Knew a Woman” as the title and the excerpt under the picture would suggest.
