INSURE YOUR MIND

with the Poems at the cost of pain

This is not a poetry book for people who have everything sorted out.
This is a book for those whose thoughts run too fast, too crooked, or too deep.

Insure Your Mind is a poetry collection by M. R. Malkki about everyday life, the body, the hunger for knowledge, hurry, and that quiet forbidden question we are not always meant to ask: why.
The texts move on the border between humour and seriousness, between speech and poetry, sometimes with the rhythm of a song, sometimes with the cold precision of an aphorism.

This book is for:

  • readers whose heads live in the clouds while their feet remain stubbornly on the ground

  • people who dislike preaching but value honesty

  • thinkers who recognise the reckless impulse, yet still manage to brake in time

  • readers with restless, ADHD-minded, or frozen thoughts who need companionship, not instructions

The poems explore themes such as:

  • the body, control, and the illusion of control

  • the pain that comes with intelligence and curiosity

  • class, equality, and the silencing of questions

  • small everyday catastrophes and quiet realisations

  • why thinking can sometimes save us – and sometimes exhaust us

This book does not offer ready-made answers.
It offers company for thinking and feeling.

Published as a Saga Story production, this indie poetry eBook that does not strive for beauty at any cost. It strives for truth. And occasionally for humour. And sometimes for excess.

If even one thought in this book helps you breathe a little more freely,
it has already done what it came to do.
