The Rug In The Room

"You cushion the footsteps of those who walk away."

The Rug in the Room uses domestic imagery to explore avoidance and comfort, tracing the quiet ways we live around unresolved things. These poems are controlled, intimate, and unsettling, where obsession and care blur into one another.

Marked by dark humour, the collection asks what we hide beneath ourselves and what refuses to disappear.
