This isn’t healing poetry.
This is what healing costs.
This is reckoning.The scream disguised as a frog in your throat.
The silence after the lightning strikes.

About the Author

Nick Calder crafts poems like someone making mirrors from broken glass: jagged, reflective.Dangerous.His poetry rattles like hairline fractures—
through catastrophe, ghost towns of memory,
and the hollow echoes of lost identity.Calder doesn’t write about pain.He invites it in, sits it down, and says,
“I don’t care how you take it. Coffee’s black."Visit him at nickcalderauthor.com
