Folded Beneath a Hurricane is a collection of free and blank verse that explores the raw, interior storms we weather—grief, memory, longing, and resilience. With imagery that is both surreal and sharply human, these poems peel back layers of experience to find what’s still breathing beneath the wreckage.

A girl with inside-out bruises, a mouthful of pennies, a mermaid crouching in the eye of a storm—this book gives voice to those who don’t fit neatly inside their own narratives. Each poem is a whisper and a howl, folded in the shape of survival.

Threaded with archetypes and absurdities—an old woman with a monkey's talisman, a girl dreaming of lava on Mars, angels found in alleyways—the collection invites the reader to reimagine trauma through the lens of wonder and quiet rebellion. These poems do not flinch; they dance, creep, and keen their way through psychic terrain, until the ghosts are given names and the silence learns how to sing.
