“When the Sky Remembers.”
First came the silence.
Then came the wings.They rose as one from the fields of flame and laughter...
a thousand shadows cutting through a dying sky.
Every crow carries a secret, every flight a warning.
The pumpkins grin, but the heavens mourn.What do the birds know that we refuse to see?
Perhaps they do not flee the dark...
perhaps they bring it.
At Short Beard Publishing, every image is a prophecy,
and every shadow writes its own ending.

Keep this haunted horizon safe from light and moisture, its dusk was born for shadow.
Store flat to preserve its flight and texture.
Avoid bending or scratching; even the faintest crease disturbs the calm before the storm.This collector’s bookmark from Short Beard Publishing captures the moment between chaos and calm, a frozen storm of wings and whispers, crafted for readers who find poetry in the sky and meaning in the dark.
