The night talks
A poetry collection about the nature of life, love, loss & identity, through the thoughts that plague us all in the dark.
About the author
Caelan Scott lives in Huddersfield, West Yorkshire, with their partner and shih tzu, Nova. As a science PhD student & writer, they have chosen to blend their love of science & poetry: "Packing my records for Mars" is a science fiction & fantasy poetry collection that will be released in December 2024. All artwork and book covers are done by the author, who wants to make the most of dabbling in art and an Adobe subscription they can't cancel.
Caelan is currently working on a science fiction horror novel, loosely inspired by their poetry collection “Packing my records for Mars”.
from the night talks
"The nameless" is a poem about the intangible pull some people have, so similar to love but entirely something else.
"Diving for Atlantis" is a poem exploring a brutal rule of a secretive religion: to choose death over transfusion.
NEW RELEASES

"Beneath the ocean lies a beast,
I can hear it wailing as the humans leave us,
but before I too, succumb to the night
as dust that swims in the universe,
I’d like to see the great giants walk,
holding hands but blowing gales,
sailing cosmic sea,
and I’m spinning, endlessly.
just stardust".
