Feature

★ A Spiritual Portrait of Gen Z: This poetry collection follows the thread that "writing poetry is a way to prolong youth", using intensely evocative language to capture the existential dilemmas of Gen Z—chronicling their struggles and reflections from campus life to the corporate grind.
★ A Trilogy of Youth: Divided into three sections — "Teenage Rebellion", "Corporate Drone’s Scream", and "Deconstructing Gender" — it traces the journey from school-uniformed defiance to the suffocating reality of office life, and finally, the struggle against gendered expectations, offering a panoramic view of contemporary young minds.
★ Tenderness and Fury Intertwined: The verses oscillate between the gentleness of "holding life like a tiger carrying its cub" and the fury of "nailing myself to a cross to measure pain", while also weaving in ecological musings like "plastic outlives me". The result is a liquid-metal-like chronicle of modern youth.

Description

This collection brings together over a hundred of the author’s poems, ranging from bathroom scribbles to sharp societal observations. Framed by the idea that "writing poetry is a way to prolong youth", the book is divided into three sections — "Teenage Rebellion", "Corporate Drone’s Scream", and "Deconstructing Gender" — using visceral language to encapsulate Gen Z’s spiritual crises. It captures everything from schoolyard defiance and the claustrophobia of office life to the tearing down of gender norms.
