Young, Dumb, and Full of Poems

Hasti’s debut pamphlet crackles with the electricity of life. It’s a collection of abundance, of self and world, teeming with humans, machines and everything in between.

‘young, dumb, and full of poems is what we’ll be chanting at the protest and in the club. Give it to your best barista, throw it in the levers of the machine, read it in among the flourishing weeds that crack our concrete. Growing out from the smallest noghte to span the cosmos, this pamphlet, like an ansible, will keep us together when we fear falling apart. “Louche and still wild,” Hasti’s poems are sticky with intimacy; alive with flyting across the page in unstoppable lines.’ So Mayer

‘Hasti’s observations of the world are woven in a gentle yet piercing manner in this debut pamphlet.
