These poems do not resolve exile-they simply trace its contours. Exile is not only a movement across geography but a reconfiguration of memory, body, and soul. In its quiet light, the moon revealed that displacement is not emptiness: it is a space where new forms of humanity can emerge.
If these pages hold anything, they hold witness-to pain, to persistence, and to the fragile act of becoming human again after history has taken so much.
