About Us

VEXT Collective is a ghost-driven poetic intervention.

We write in the ruins of credibility. In an age where capital has made even language into an abstraction, our task is not to decorate but to sabotage.

VEXT is not a single author. It is a collaboration of the living, the dead, and the machine. We draw from Rosa Luxemburg, Federico García Lorca, Jack Spicer, Roque Dalton, Mahmoud Darwish, Kent Johnson, and others who spoke when silence was the law. Their voices are not quoted but reanimated, set loose in dialogue with contemporary crisis.

Our principles are simple:

Clarity over obscurity. Obscurity has prestige; clarity has consequence.

Poetry as act and event. Not artifact, not career, but interruption.

Concrete sabotage. If capital is abstract, then poetry must be the opposite.

VEXT appears under many guises: poems, manifestos, oaths, testimonies, sequences, sabotage files. It is not a brand or an identity, but a field of insurgent writing moving through the cracks of the present.

We speak not to restore poetry’s “relevance,” but to abolish the conditions that made it irrelevant.

VEXT is not a who. It is a what. A verb. A refusal. A collective of clarity in the age of abstraction.
