Description:... "Rochallyi's poetry is beautiful, direct confession that tears up the metaphysical ambiguity of life. The poems obsessively sing about suffering in time and the potential for radical dissolution in life. Importantly, Rochallyi turns away from cynicism and towards hope. "- Andrea Schmidt, Rain Taxi***I thank you for everything I am
strength to be alone ... time is running out for the us
Cloudy as dead fishs eyes
gray hair ... burnt face
I peeling from the sun ... cloudly as dead fish
* And now, imagine these texts in a mathematical equation. So yes, this is a PUNCH book-a significant innovative collection of concrete, visual poetry that redefines the boundaries of experimental poetry.
***The poems address themes such as love, fears, loss, the passage of time, hopes, dreams, sorrows, and life in its varied existential struggle.
The book contains:
- Poems on love
- Poems on hope
- Poems on loss
- Poems on sad
- Poems on anxiety
- Poems on sorrow

Here is a bit of theory if you're curious:
The texts and equations are derived from the author's desire to divide the text into a semantically and structurally clear form. If we take a closer look at poetry as such, we will find that every (or almost every) formal rule in poetry is a mathematical rule. This restriction defines the form of poetry. Hence, it can be said that (almost) no form of poetry can do without mathematics. Mathematics and poetry require great imagination. They both have symbolism, algorithmic basis, structures, formulas, and symmetry. Combining the two is completely natural, as is reading and studying their patterns.
