Writing Cybergnosis was never just about creating a book. It was survival. It was remembering. It was the act of holding on to the small, luminous threads that still tied me to life when everything else seemed ready to unravel.
The journey to this book took nearly three years. Three years marked by personal losses, moments of despair, silent battles with anxiety and depression, and the quiet hope that maybe, just maybe, putting my truth into words would heal something inside me.
And somehow, it did.
Cybergnosis is more than poetry. It’s a reflection of a soul navigating a crumbling system, a system that promises support but rarely delivers it, that demands endless productivity while starving us of meaning and connection.
I wrote to survive, but also to witness.
I wrote because the world kept asking me to forget who I was, and I refused.
From a young age, computing, video games, and cyberpunk stories became my sanctuaries. In neon lights, corrupted cityscapes, and broken code, I found metaphors for the world I lived in, beautiful and broken, oppressive and free, sometimes all at once.
Cybergnosis is born of that space. It’s a cyberpunk spirit woven together with raw human emotion, trauma, love, rebellion, and a longing for transcendence.
Each piece in Cybergnosis is a signal sent across dark skies:
“I am still here. I remember. I resist.”
It took me countless nights of writing through tears, editing through exhaustion, and learning to trust my voice again after the world tried to silence it.
But this book is proof that even broken things can sing. That even after everything, we can still create beauty, and in doing so, we create new paths home to ourselves.
Thank you for being here.
Thank you for witnessing.
