You might have been wondering who Atticus is
— and you're not alone

The enigmatic, ever mysterious, internet-born poet Atticus has got us mystified ever since he started posting poetry online. His poems have been circulating the WWW and we always catch ourselves in awe by his minimalist, yet eloquent, prose.

His pithy sayings about love, life, and loss somehow opened our sometimes-broken-sometimes-whole hearts to enlightenment.

By the way, we combined Lomography.com's film photographs in Manila and around the world with his poems to give you that nostalgia feel while reading.

Enjoy and share these with someone you love!

On courage

On happiness

On embracing the raging seas

On unpredictability

On faking smiles

On bubbling and babbling away

On living and glimmering!

On leaving regrets behind

On the concept of 'falling in love'

On true love

When love won over 'perfection'

On the beauty and benefits of friendship

On the power of words

On painting through words

On painting despite the grayness of life

On defining real beauty

On facing your fears

On staying strong and moving forward

On living, sparkling…

… and staying alive

"I write words, poems, epigrams.
It's how the world makes sense to me." — Atticus
