I Might Imagine Wild Things (A book of poetry)

In this debut collection, Sheena Stimpfl traces the raw and unflinching journey of breaking cycles-of unlearning inherited pain, confronting the echoes of a turbulent childhood, and facing the shadows of trauma that linger into adulthood. Through intimate reflections, these poems navigate the jagged terrain of new motherhood, where exhaustion and joy often collide. What emerges is a portrait of reckoning and release, a voice learning to breathe within the ordinary rhythms of daily life, and the quiet resilience that rises from choosing, again and again, to begin anew.
