Tonight we turn the lantern inward with two of Lovecraft’s earliest poems — Despair and Nemesis.
Each reveals the young author’s fascination with lost civilizations, cosmic loneliness, and the haunting beauty of ruin. There are no monsters here — only memory, decay, and the slow turning of the stars.
