Failed Experiments

Failed Experiments is a haunting and intimate collection of poems by Samuel Ludke that examines the fragile alchemy of human connection, self-discovery, and emotional survival. In verses both raw and refined, Ludke lays bare the wreckage of dreams, the quiet ache of loneliness, and the strange beauty found in moments of collapse.
Each poem is a test tube shattered, a theory of love or identity abandoned in the wake of hard truths. From the echoes of lost relationships to the deep stillness of introspection, Failed Experiments invites readers to confront the flawed formulas we create to navigate our lives-and to find meaning in the mess.
