A collection of confessional & cinematic poems that reimagines the final girl archetype as a woman standing at the threshold of midlife. Balancing intimate self-examination with cinematic possession, these poems inhabit the uneasy space between the weight of the past & the dread of the future, tracing the inner life of someone whose greatest hauntings emerge from within.
"i won’t say i’m afraid
i have built space for fear an unfilled hour my unfilled womb nostalgia wrecked
the way the spine clicks my chest-burster heart those teeth those claws"
-from "The Final Girl"
