The House of Small Gods is a home where devotion curdles into possession and love becomes liturgy performed by an unreliable priest. These poems chart a relationship cycling through worship and harm, where pets, rage, and routine become altars, service becomes strategy, and apology becomes holy armor. Through tight formal constraints, this debut collection explores the gap between who we claim to be and what we enact. This is not confession but patterned revelation: a catechism demanding elaboration. A work examining the dark psychology of ordinary devotion and the quiet violences we call care.

Author’s Name: Lucius Thaum
About the Author: Lucius Thaum lives with his family in New England. He began writing poetry as a practice of self-reflection, seeking clarity through structure and formal constraint. His work examines the dark psychology beneath the human condition, exploring how ordinary devotion can become harm, and the distance between self-perception and action. Drawing from close observation of public behavior and private lives, his poetry constructs unreliable voices that reveal more through pattern than confession. The House of Small Gods is his first collection.
