Some fires cleanse. Others haunt.
Smoke Halos is a collection of poems born from the scorched fragments of survival and shaped into poetry that bleeds, breathes, and blazes. Where memory lingers like smoke and healing doesn't come without wounds.
From the heat of family fractures to the quiet embers of healing, these poems navigate the haunted halls of grief, the ache of motherhood, and the divine disaster of being human.
Each piece is a match struck in the dark-some a warning, others a guide. For those who have risen from ruin or are still sifting through ash, this collection is a reminder that you are not alone on your walk through the fire.
S. Arielle writes from the edge-where melancholy and conjecture meet. Her work lives in the spaces between ruin and resurrection, always reaching for beauty in the afterburn.
