His poetry falls into two distinct bodies of work: the polished and formalist lyric poetry of his early career, and the epic narrative of occult communication with spirits and angels, titled The Changing Light at Sandover , which dominated his later career. Although most of his published work was poetry, he also wrote essays, fiction, and plays.
