what’s new at fourteen poems:
The first book of our 2026/27 pamphlet season is a collection of poems, screenshots, memes, and lists from Rose Ramsden, as she sums up the pressures of modern life lived through our phones.
Rose Ramsden is a UK-based poet with an MA in Creative Writing from Royal Holloway. She has been previously published in our fourteen poems anthologies, as well as by our friends at bathmagg, The Punch magazine, and elsewhere.
‘chronically online’ will be released 25th May and you can pre-order here!
See what advance readers have said about ‘chronically online’ below
Rose Ramsden’s chronically online presents a widening – a queering – of what poetry can be in the world (and worlds) we live in now. And now. And now.
Screenshots become Duchamp-style readymades, the lyric ‘I’ becomes a meme – not a universality but universalities.
Ramsden’s doomscroll poetics and brainrot sensibility will leave you asking “how can a meme punch me in the chest like this????”
Ellora Sutton
chronically online is an essential, fearless examination of the Zeitgeist.
In many ways the collection is a love letter to meme culture, acknowledging how memes have become a form of shared consciousness for the poet’s generation.
Written with stunning precision, Ramsden’s poems are cutting yet tender, and the accompanying screenshots push the limits of the collage and cento forms.
Part cultural commentary, part psychological voyage, this is a collection to spend hours with, despite its brevity.
