Glass & Gravel is poetry that doesn’t pretend everything is roses and honey.

This is a book for readers who know there’s a cost to seeing things clearly. For anyone who understands that talking honestly about grief, trauma, heartbreak, and rebuilding rarely comes out neat or polite.

Glass & Gravel is a collection of raw, uncompromising, and unflinching poems—paired with stark black-and-white illustrations that deepen its impact. These images don’t soften the words; they reinforce the themes of fracture, clarity, and the cost of confronting what breaks us.

It refuses easy consolations. It doesn’t offer a tidy narrative of healing. Rather, it accepts that healing isn’t linear and confronts the stops and starts, the cautions and doubts that come with trying to make something whole from what’s been broken.
