A Revival Experiment
Reclaim all that you are and push away the digital ghosts…
It’s not that I’ve forgotten
what you did,
I just no longer think about you.
When the walls are collapsing around you, you can sit still and get squeezed or learn to start building upwards. After reaching the heights of all dreams realized, the collapse and reset could sting more than never having touched the summit. The reverberations of such a hurt, on a thorny road of countless betrayals, will redesign the quest for actualization.
A Revival Experiment collects 105 poems, 14 personal essays, 25 observational micro-thoughts, and 12 drawings, all originally crafted inside a dot-grid notebook with archival ink over a specific spring which symbolized the rejuvenation of a worn-out spirit. The works detail philosophical ponderings about existence, the feeling of intellectual and cultural exile, the role of faith as medicine, and maintaining rigorous principles in a world that rewards those who reshape their ethics for personal gain, all told from the perspective of aphantasia.
