CARVED in our BONES: Poetry and Prose

Every poem is a secret, every story, a reckoning. Something moves beneath the skin of every tale. Maybe it’s a whisper under a heartbeat. Maybe it’s something not entirely human. Dare to find out in CARVED in our BONES . This haunting collection of speculative poems and short stories was created from grief and ruin, from silence and chaos. It explores what lives beneath the surface of our lives—memory, myth, longing, and the shadows we inherit. Blending dark fantasy, quiet horror, and emotional lyricism, these pieces reveal the forces that shape who we become. What lies within? Picture a forgotten city that lies in ruin, where something ancient—older than fear—breathes in the shadows. Or a child finding a dying shark in the tide, learning pain in a language she doesn’t understand. These are fragments of poems held in CARVED in our BONES . And then there are the stories. The headlines drip with blood; it’s a terrible night for a blind date.

If you’re captivated by speculative poetry with teeth, eerie and atmospheric short fiction, charged writing that lingers, or literary fantasy and ghost stories, then CARVED in our BONES was written for you!
