The Bedlam Philharmonic & Other Poems

These 30 narrative poems and one short story plunge into life’s dark, deep waters. Some have supernatural elements, some are rooted in the real. All are meant to delight, unnerve, and frighten. Steven Withrow’s poems appear in Spectral Realms, Asimov’s Science Fiction, Dreams & Nightmares, and Epitaphs: The Journal of the New England Horror Writers. His short poem “The Sun Ships,” from a collection of the same title, was nominated for a 2016 Rhysling Award from the Science Fiction & Fantasy Poetry Association. He lives in Falmouth, Massachusetts.
