Haunting of a Monarch

By Alexandra Riseman

Haunting of a Monarch is a quiet reckoning with fear. The kind that flutters softly, the kind that grips the throat. In poems both raw and tender, this collection traces the slow unfolding from trauma into breath, from flinching into presence. Here, ghosts wear lace, the body is both stranger and sanctuary, and staying becomes an act of courage. Through vivid imagery and delicate strength, these poems do not conquer fear, they choose to carry it forward.
