Abstract
In the middle ages, map makers filled the expanse of ocean between continents with hosts of chimeric creatures. The monsters on these maps were half science, half art. I tend to admire my own versions of these monsters in my experience of liminal space: the physical space between borders, the emotional space between friendship and falling in love, the confusing space between being a child and being an adult, the state between dreams and waking. This collection of poems was written in celebration of these uncharted places, and the sublime creatures who inhabit them.
