Voidward
Voidward is the debut poetry collection by Jaia Papitz, a voice unafraid to bruise, disintegrate, and reassemble language in the shape of myth, memory, and ash.

These poems are not stories—they are fractures. They do not seek resolution, but instead lean into rupture. Surreal, existential, and deeply lyrical, Voidward navigates the uncharted terrain between silence and scream, desire and decay, collapse and rebirth.

In this collection, collapsing cities echo with unfinished prayers. Prophets limp into extinction. Lovers flicker and vanish into metaphors. Time folds in on itself. A hitchhiker smokes beneath a crucified sky. God forgets your name.

Each poem exists in a state of drift—toward absence, toward mystery, toward something beautifully unspoken. The voice here is one of posthuman lyricism, decentered surrealism, and mythic existentialism.

Voidward is not a destination. It's a direction. A vanishing point.
This is not poetry for the light.
This is poetry that dares to disintegrate.

About the Author

Jaia Papitz writes from the fracture point—where language breaks, memory distorts, and silence sharpens. His work explores what it means to dissolve rather than define, to drift instead of arrive.

Drawing from posthuman lyricism, decentered surrealism, and mythic existentialism, his poetry resists categorization. It speaks from the void and to it. He is less concerned with the self than with what remains after the self has ruptured.

Voidward is his first collection: a descent, a distortion, a disappearing act. He prefers lowercase when the wind insists, and writes to touch what cannot be held.
