MHI: ABERRATION by Eugen Bacon

Trigger Warning: This piece addresses mental health

The HWA is pleased to launch its Mental Health Initiative, a coordinated roll-out of events, resources, and activities intended to promote positive mental health, foster the concept of hope, and challenge the stigma of mental illness in the horror genre. The initiative, run by the organization’s Wellness Committee, launches in June, and includes the following blog posts from Of Horror and Hope, a downloadable anthology of poems, flash fiction, and personal reflections on mental health by HWA members.

ABERRATION
Eugen Bacon

lockouts lockins jag jag tereu
pathless  fragments
sifting  spaces
absent  puddles
falling  words
echoes  rumours
lost  birdsong
missing  rivers
shudders  sighs
future  nothing
past  no thing
hotline  strangers
named  deb
