A dark and sinister slice of the macabre horror, gothic, surreal and supernatural poetry...
This is the author’s first collection of
poems and a long-awaited wish come true.
"Devil in the Clock" is a searing collection
of 55 poems of dark-hearted poetry: horror, gothic, surreal and supernatural mindmares that
reach out and grab you by the throat with their
tainted blend of truth. These uniquely-rendered
poems catch a moment in time so vividly that they
will play through your mind even in your own
bed at the edge of sleep. Proof that poetry
can be as deadly as anthrax. Alexis Child's
poetry and fiction has appeared on the
web, and in countless magazines.
"Devil in the Clock" is Now Available for Purchase on Amazon!

Book Review:
Sat up by the fire one evening reading this dark little book. Paired well
with Malbec, but when phantoms cast by the snapping flames began to dance
with Child's haunting poetry, I knew I was in for a sleepless night.
With odes to Jack the Ripper, and nuances of Leilah Wendell, Child's
expressions and observations of all things sinister and wicked are quite penetrating.
One imagines a cloaked enchantress uttering these invocations from deep within her lair.
The words are alive.
In particular: Beggar's Curse Gypsy Graveyard Night Visitations: Les Incubus Broken Flowers
A talented poet, a twisted wordsmith, a connoisseur of imagery,
an architect of nightmares, Child does not disappoint.
