Autotheory: poems, i guess - Paperback

by Ishaan Saxena (Author)

How does one find a sense of belonging amidst the madness that is the modern world? Does this belonging look like a home, or like love? Where do we even begin this search-is there a path we can tread on towards freedom?

Autotheory is an exploration of the emancipatory power of the words and of poetics. At each step along the way, it maintains that "Philosophy must be done as poetry. To uncover the world, one must rediscover the ways of seeing it."

Words carry weight. Words build our worlds, and they show us the way through it. Words help us find ourselves and our homes in this chaos that we are all condemned to navigate.

These words attempt to find my self in this world.

These words hope to help you with your search too.

if i had those words, i would tell you-

(translated loosely)

be kind to our body,

this river.
