Vagary: an erratic, unpredictable, or extravagant manifestation, action, or notion (Merriam-Webster) Vagary is my journey from teens to adulthood, an apology & explanation to the people around me. It is, fundamentally, a coming-of-age collection of poems. Growing up in Greece, the second half of my teens was marked by the beginning of a severe economic crisis that fundamentally changed the way I saw the world & myself. The poems are my thoughts and fears, my dreams and hopes, the journey from apathy to my personal political awakening. Before every section, there are prologues about what inspired me to write these poems and puts them in a context. Sample (1st poem): "I am the undelivered message. The voice muted. A world hidden behind words. Standing in the middle of the crowd, I’m slowly walking towards the stairs of the tube station. I can feel the tube swallowing me whole, as I swim in its arteries, squeezing my feelings next to a million other people’s feelings. I try to write a message on the announcement board of the station. I get shoved, and I lose my balance. I get up, embarrassed. No one noticed."
