A collection of lyrical and terrifying poems written entirely in iambic meter.
IAMBIC pulses with the ancient rhythm of English verse-each beat a step deeper into the uncanny. This debut collection blurs the line between lyrical beauty and creeping horror. With hypnotic language and a cinematic eye, Marco Di Chio leads readers through ghostly forests, shifting mirrors, abandoned houses, and haunting memories. The poems speak of longing, death, memory, and madness-often in the same breath.
Drawing inspiration from English literary tradition, IAMBIC honours the meter of Shakespeare and Milton while crafting something entirely new. This is not just poetry to be read-this is poetry to be heard, to be felt, to be feared. Once entered, it doesn't let you go.
