Tales Beyond The Pale is an anthology of poems ranging from the mundane to the fantastical, from the delightfully melancholy to the bitterly wistful. Meditations on myth, glimpses into the lives of unsung legends, stark confessions of the soul, and more await those who dare to pass beyond the pale…

The insidious, infectious allure of the macabre is one familiar to all, but can gruesome work be done in service of a noble cause? What lines are we prepared to cross to bring comfort to others? When the flesh and blood of grief give way to blessed bone, the King will soon be calling…

Come aboard and sail the synaptic seas of sanity! Or lack thereof. What is truly going inside these capricious craniums of ours? What virtues and vices vie for command of our turbulent mindscapes? An equal parts cerebral and sentimental excursion into the voices that compel us all. Strap your heads in folks, for here there be monsters.

What conflict can be wrought across a cosmos, cleansed of both the wicked and the just? What use is it to heed the call to action? When all that’s left to settle is the dust…This work attempts to answer those very questions, or at the very least explore their implications. A lone figure roams the red planet’s surface, and reckons with all that he has done, and all that he has lost.
