THE 13TH HOUR: GOTHIC POEMS IN REFLECTION is an opulent collection of gothic verse arranged as an act of enchantment: thirteen mirrors, each holding thirteen poems-desire reflecting desire, shadow answering shadow. Every page is an invocation, every stanza a breath against the glass.

A companion to THE 13TH HOUR: A TOME OF GOTHIC POETRY, this volume invites the reader to step fully beyond the threshold. Drawing from the rich lineage of Gothic literature, these poems shimmer with sensuality, wit, and velvet-dark alliteration, exploring queer identity, erotic devotion, spiritual awakening, and the alchemy of becoming.

Each mirror opens a hidden portal-romantic, haunted, and luminous-where the LGBT experience is rendered mythic and sacred, longing becomes liturgy, and language itself performs the work of spell craft. This is poetry that seduces and transforms, both decadent and devotional in its gaze.

To enter THE 13TH HOUR: GOTHIC POEMS IN REFLECTION is to cross the mirror willingly-and to be changed by what waits, breathing softly, on the other side.
