The Civility of Monsters: A Howl for the Unheard: Poetry for Those Told to Smile as the World Burns

A raw, unflinching anthem for the silenced-where rage and tenderness collide.

The Civility of Monsters is not a book of poetry. It is a reckoning.

In these pages, grief stitches itself to love, rage refuses to be tamed, and softness becomes a weapon. With the lyrical precision of a surgeon and the fury of a storm, this collection holds a mirror to the monsters we were taught to worship-and the quiet resilience of those who survive them.

Poems include focuses on:

• Genocide in Gaza
• Hope for Palestine
• Trauma survivors
• Poetry for women
• Patriarchy and capitalism
• Gender diversity
• LoveFor those who feel "too much" in a world that demands numbness.

For those who've watched the world burn but still reach for light.

For the hearts cracked open-yet beating, yet fighting.

The Civility of Monsters is your fire. Your mirror. Your permission to howl.
