“But nothing is more opaque than absolute transparency.”
Quote by Margaret Atwood
Work
Morning in the Burned House
This poetry collection presents a series of lyrical works that examine the aftermath of personal and historical devastation. The poems frequently employ vivid, elemental imagery—such as fire, water, and landscapes—to meditate on survival, grief, and the possibility of renewal. The title poem suggests a moment of quiet reckoning within a space marked by destruction, while other pieces address broader human experiences of love, mortality, and the passage of time. The language is precise and evocative, balancing stark observation with moments of unexpected tenderness. more
