Killed the Clock is an assortment of poetry that captures the world through the lens of emotion, from unadulterated thrill, to unbridled rage, to the macabre chains of anxiety and depression, and at last to confident satisfaction as the world and its wonders are revealed as both horrible and beautiful.

Contemporary works can be found side-by-side with archaic language and gothic literature, and prose musings juxtapose pentameter. The collection varies widely in both subject matter and style so that every poetry lover may find something to appreciate.
