The poems are not confined to a linear journey but move in spirals, stumbles, and intuitive redirections. The core purpose of the collection is to navigate being: through grief, politicized chaos, and re-anchoring in the self and world. It maps the psyche and body in flux with personal, collective, and societal shifts. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWhile directionlessness is part of the terrain, the axis-East-suggests some sense of pull or magnetic return, a place we circle around, land, if only for a time before leaving, only to make our way back, again and again. Many of the poems question how do we find footing after spiraling? How do we stay still in a spinning world? Or spin in a still one? How does memory or mourning help us orient? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThe journey is not following a traditional path but assembling a map from fragments, from poetic gestures that occasionally contradict, then align.\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 114\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.27 x 8.5 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e April 24, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48588535103737,"sku":"9798309332113","price":14.83,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/DBeks-x4yO9798309332113.webp?v=1782252975","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/east-axis-a-second-collection-of-poetry-paperback","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
