Poems

The collection gathers symbolist lyrics that use enclosed, clinical images—hot-houses, bell-glasses, hospitals, diving-bells—and other refracted objects to examine spiritual confinement, languor, and yearning for elemental vitality. Recurring motifs of glass, heat, night, and white birds frame meditations on illness, isolation, prayer, and the fevered or listless soul. Short narrative songs and vision-like pieces evoke sisterhood, love, loss, and ritual gestures, while reflective lyrics attend to perception, memory, and the tension between artifice and nature. Language privileges musical cadence and suggestive imagery over explicit exposition, inviting multiple symbolic readings.
