KN Magazine: Poetry
Butterflies
In “Butterflies,” Holly Day twists beauty and decay into a startling meditation on death. Imagining a world where brilliant moths and jewel-toned butterflies emerge from human corpses, this provocative poem challenges our revulsion toward mortality and asks whether transformation would change the way we grieve. Lyrical, unsettling, and philosophical, it confronts the thin boundary between horror and wonder.
Dust to Dust: Milepost 466
A haunting desert drive becomes a collision of memory, myth, and terror as a lone traveler confronts the revenants of her past and something far darker lurking on Route 264. A poem of place, dread, and the thin veil between the living and what listens in the night.
