About this book

When the World Tilts is a deeply intimate and emotionally charged poetry collection that explores life after open-heart surgery, vestibular migraine, PPPD, neurological trauma, and the fragile process of rebuilding identity after the body changes without warning. Through vivid imagery, raw honesty, and lyrical free verse, Jamison Travis transforms chronic dizziness, cognitive fog, fear, and recovery into powerful meditations on survival, resilience, grief, adaptation, and hope.

Structured in three movements, Static, Storm, and Light, the collection traces the emotional landscape of illness and healing: from the first terrifying moments of vertigo and disorientation to the slow reclamation of balance, selfhood, and meaning. These poems capture the invisible realities of neurological illness with striking clarity while speaking universally to anyone who has endured trauma, uncertainty, chronic illness, or profound personal transformation.

Atmospheric, haunting, and ultimately compassionate, When the World Tilts is both a testament to endurance and a reminder that healing is rarely a return to who we were before - it is learning how to move forward inside a changed world.
