In Poems for the Apocalypse, the end is not nigh-it is already here, unfolding in the cracks of democracy, the rise of unchecked power, and the uneasy silence that follows. Drawing on emotions surrounding the 2025 U.S. Presidential election, these poems navigate the annihilation of truth, the slow erosion of hope, and the haunting threat of a dystopian future that looms over America.
This collection explores the fault lines of our collective path forward: the weight of choices made, the chaos of a collapsing system, and the small, desperate acts of resistance that spark like fireflies in the darkness. These are poems for the watchers, the grievers, the fighters-for anyone who has ever stood at the edge of humanity and stared into the void with insurmountable dread.
Written as both a warning and a reckoning, Poems for the Apocalypse is a collision of the personal and the political; it is part examination of doom, part excavation of grief, and part field guide for surviving what feels like the end of the world as we know it.
