Generation Chaos: We Were Here - Paperback

Generation Chaos: We Were Here is a raw, unflinching archive of coming of age in a world already engulfed in flames. Blending poetry, memory, whispers and witness, Cemmi Rane writes from the eye of the storm-where school shooter drills replace recess, where rights vanish by executive order, and children carry climate grief like a second spine. In this world, womanhood is a war zone, queerness is a politicized issue, and truth itself is being slowly redacted. These poems do not beg or plead for hope. They remember. They resist. They ache towards the fever-dream like memory of childhood in a long forgotten world. We ache towards softness anyway. This is not dystopia. This is a generation trying to live through it- holding each other with ink-stained hands and hearts, writing we were here into the rubble before it disappears.
