This collection will take on different meanings at different points in time. Many of the key themes have multiple messages. This is also the case in many interpretations of the vocabulary. Everyone has an individual perception of what truth is. These works are representative of this writer's understanding of that entity.It is my hope that this collection will inspire the realization within each reader that the true wisdom in life is one's ability to believe in oneself. Thus, will it become possible to accept responsibility for our own actions? Once this end is accomplished, we can, each in his own right, make beneficial changes. Many have had this same dream since the dawn of time. It is this writer's most ardent hope that this work will find acceptance within the heart of each reader. A further hope is that these perceptions will serve as an inspiration to each to establish a positive sense of self and a more cohesive view of the people around you.Try to set gender aside in these works. Wherever possible, substitute people and situations within your own life and the lives of the loved ones around you.

An enchanting mix of English and Japanese, carnal and divine, sparkling banter and deep vulnerability, Dane Ince's and Mercedes' "Morning Tanka" distills volumes of intimacy into a series of short-form Tanka poems. Its central partners swap love notes, pillow talk, and deep confession, giving us a privileged glimpse of their inner lives and the "beautiful poetry [their] hearts write together."--Emily Cordes, author of "Armful of Poppies" and "Queen of Swords"A journal of thank you notes between lovers, California poems in the style of traditional Japanese form poetry In English and Japanese. In the tradition of the Beat poets, the writers practice the form of Japanese poetry that originated in the seventh century. Tanka poems are thirty-one syllables in five lines and more expansive than the three-line haiku, yet still the compression confines the poet to just the exact words to convey gratefulness for the blessings of love. The translations are by Yuri Miki a Japanese Slam poetry champion.A sensory buffet that tingles and teases the reader with its sheer visual impact. These exquisite tankas are intensely personal word paintings with striking and potent imagery. I was enraptured with the deftly woven skeins of nature, love, and desire. "Shimmer water kissing lips Like ships sinking into fog." The Japanese form of poetry that began in the seventh century is effectively carried forward in California today by Dane and Mercedes in these morning notes of gratitude and love. The metaphors are endearingly fresh, the passion palpable. These five-line tanka letters are conversational in tone even as they disarmingly bare body and soul. The fragrant sensuality rises above the wondrous awe that the poets feel for each other. A book to be kept close to your bed in order to savour its sheer genius.

Minsan sa tula natin mahahanap ang paglilinaw sa mga bagay, mga kasagutan sa tanong kung paano tayo nagiging kabahagi nito habang binabasa. Ang tula ay nasa kahit saan, hinihintay lang niya ang makata na kumuha ng sangkap at magtimpla upang mabuo ito. Nabuo ang librong ito dahil sa karanasan at mga kuwentong pinaniniwalaan ng bayan na ayon sa kasaysayan ay tama.Natagalan man sa pagluto ngayon ay buong pusong inihain ang bahagi ng kaisipan na inilapat sa piraso ng papel na kung saan ay may layang nagsasaysay tungkol sa mga kuwento ng buhay maging kuwento ng mga walang buhay, naging boses sa mga gustong magsalita na hindi nabigyan nang pagkakataon, naglahad ng mga 'di pansing kuwento ng sistema, ideyolohiya sa akala mong walang halagang bagay na kung makata ang tatanungin ay nagiging makabuluhan ito. Oo , alam ko na hindi madaling salain ang mga konsepto na nag-uunahan upang mailimbag sa katunayan minsan sa pagtulog gusto ko na may mapanaginipan na tema ng paksa na siguradong tatangkilikin ng lahat.Nais ng mga tulang nakapaloob dito na tapikin ang mga nagtutulug-tulugan at patulugin ang mga matagal nang nagpupuyat sa sistema, naniniwala ako na napakaraming kuwento sa kasaysayan na kayang buhayin at bigyang linaw ng mga tula, alay ito sa kanila.Kung may ilang bagay man ako na masabi na hindi katanggap-tanggap para sa iyo, itulad mo na lang ang librong ito sa mansanas na may bahaging bulok: hiwain ang bulok na bahagi, itapon at tsaka pakinabangan ang natira, sa parehong dahilan pilasin at basahin ang mapapakinabangan.Hawak mo ngayon ang kalipunan ng aking mga tula gaya nang sinabi ko sa paalala ng may-akda "buhayin mo sila."

'Through the noise of a world inundated by too much overwrought overwriting, too many clichés, too many lies, too many adjectives, Rory Harris's deceptively simple, short, imagistic poems ring like clear bells. They always have, but never so tellingly perhaps. Harris has always been concerned with exploring the minutiae of domestic and family love, but grief has given the most recent work an added emotional undertow. He has been one of my favourite poets for many years, a meditative companion for times to quote Keats - when my "eyeballs are vexed and tired", and the answer, then, is to "feast them upon the wideness of the sea" - in this case a a sea of small, but deep, poems.' - Peter Goldsworthy'...sparks of light and small arrows of distress knit together in such seemingly simple shapes.' - Jorie Ryan, Eureka Street'He has a respectful but concise and impartial approach to his characters and writing. The total effect is of attractive sympathy and profound talent in reserve.' - Jennifer Maiden, Sydney Morning Herald

A lonely art historian absorbed in her research seizes the opportunity to share in the joys and pleasures of the lives of a glittering couple, only to find her hopes of companionship and happiness shattered.

The Odyssey was originally composed in Homeric Greek around the 8th or 7th century BC and, by the mid-6th century BC, had become part of the Greek literary canon. In antiquity, Homer's authorship of the poem was not questioned. Still, contemporary scholarship predominantly assumes that the Iliad and the Odyssey were composed independently and that the stories formed part of a long oral tradition. Given widespread illiteracy, the poem was performed by an aoidos or rhapsode and was more likely to be heard than read.Crucial themes in the poem include the ideas of nostos "return"), wandering, xenia ("guest-friendship"), testing, and omens. Scholars still reflect on the narrative significance of certain groups in the poem, such as women and slaves, who have a more prominent role in the epic than in many other works of ancient literature. This focus is especially remarkable when contrasted with the Iliad, which centers on the exploits of soldiers and kings during the Trojan War.The Odyssey is regarded as one of the most significant works of the Western canon. The first English translation of the Odyssey was in the 16th century. Adaptations and re-imaginings continue to be produced across a wide variety of media. In 2018, when BBC Culture polled experts worldwide to find literature's most enduring narrative, the Odyssey topped the list.

Næturverk / Nachwerk ist eine vielschichtige, tiefgründige Gedichtsammlung. In der für den Dichter charakteristischen Bildsprache fließen hier Momentaufnahmen des Alltags, poetische Verweise auf andere Schriftsteller und Mythen aus aller Welt in etwas Größeres, Universelles ineinander: z.B. den Ursprung und das Wesen des Menschen und die grundlegende Existenz der Sprache. In ungebundenen Gedichten wie auch in tagebuchartigen Prosaskizzen und traumähnlichen Sequenzen führt der Autor zusammen, was vermeintlich nicht zusammengehört. Das Überwinden von Grenzen beim Betrachten der Welt und ihrer Geheimnisse, dies ist das zentrale Ziel des Bandes, entsprechend dem ihm vorangestellten Zitat von Leonora Carrington: Die Aufgabe des rechten Auges ist es, in das Teleskop zu schauen, während das linke in das Mikroskop schaut.

Der zweite Gedichtband von Hung-min Krämer macht da weiter, wo ihr Debüt "Alles außer Haiku" 2019 aufgehört hat, also mittendrin. Mehr vom Gleichen also? Aber wie soll das gehen, wenn nichts mit sich selbst identisch bleibt und alles in Bewegung ist? Diese neuen Texte schauen durch die Ozonlöcher des Unbewussten in die Welt, und die Welt schaut zurück. Immer genauer justieren sie die Lage, doch die Lage ist das, was sich nicht justieren lassen will. Vor diesem Paradox kapituliert Hung-min Krämers Lyrik nicht, sondern findet neue Wege zwischen Gelassenheit und Revolte. Und sie bringt ihre Verbündeten mit: Komm Wind / streichle meine brennenden Augenlider / und trage den Mittag hinaus.

Through heartfelt verses I let you walk with me into shattered dreams, passing by fragments of love, dealing with mental health and the healing process along the way.

Together we will see the importance of self-reflection and the power of accepting change and finding beauty in imperfection. I aim to offer encouragement to those who may be going through their hell. and the strength to follow their path of self-discovery and personal growth.

Embark on a decadent voyage through twisted lands with Aeternitas: a mesmerizing collection of dark poetry. Delve into its provocative verses (many of which do rhyme), some of which contains non-explicit, vaguely illicit verse. It was written to inspire and ignite the imaginations of people who have a less-than-mainstream imagination and invite them on a somewhat decadent, fairly Baroque journey through twisted, broken lands and to cast aside the shackles of mundanity.

There are lots of similarities between Poetry and Physics. Both are inner studies of nature. Both are philosophies of life and nature. Both are complementary, like two sides of a coin. When Physics fails to explain life, the origin of the universe, mankind and its future, then poetry comes in. When Poetry ends and other realities of life start, Physics comes in handy. This book is written during Covid19 period, where the poet tries to explain nature, society, mankind and science through poetry.

About the BookIn ''Fall' the pages come alive with a poetic exploration of the human experience. This collection takes readers into the interplay between darkness and light, dreams and reality, courage and vulnerability.

While a few poems illuminate the secrets of the night, where the allure of the unknown and the intoxication of dreams collide, a few also talk about the art and the artist's soul.

These poems are a testament to the indomitable human spirit and the enduring power of poetry to illuminate the complexities of our lives.About the AuthorHi, I am Huzefa Lodghar, the author of this book.

What does it mean to provide hope, encouragement, solace and joy to a dear friend who is staying with you during a clinical trial for pancreatic cancer? My faith informs me that no love is greater than friendship; to lay down one's life for a friend. And yet, I think the power of friendship is generally undervalued by our culture. These poems arose from that context, both personal and societal, as I nurtured plants in my summer garden, ran daily errands in the car, and shared meals and laughter with our friend and her husband, always looking for signs of strength and hope for our days together.

These poems speak to us like a best friend will over a reasonably priced brunch, and we've all got a little less serotonin than we need, so if we hear the perfect combination of words before the eggs arrive, we'll cry right there in front of the whole gorgeous, horrible earth. And these poems are the perfect combination of words. Morgan's voice is that of a friend we know we don't deserve, but desperately, unabashedly adore.-Patrick Whitfill These poems are rapid-pulsed and expansive, littered with art, grit, belly and loss. They're also about the tight little worlds we make between each other-shaded and crosshatched, valued such they hold everything you'll ever need.-Ashley Warlick My Husband is Learning to Draw reminds us that upheaval precedes creation. Like kintsugi, these poems embrace breakage, and Mamie Morgan's lyric voice - generous, nimble, and illimitable - is the gold. To read Morgan is to be cracked open and then repaired: "half filled with sand, half somehow filled with delight."-Kirby Knowlton

Rooted and Reduced to Dust, Ivy Raff's debut poetry collection plumbs the depths of movement, of growth: from one generation to the next, from sickness to health, from Eastern Europe across America. The poems bridge the past with today's heartbreaking tenderness, braiding bravery and vulnerability."These poems are alive," writes Bruce Smith, author of seven poetry collections and finalist for a Pulitzer prize and the National Book Award. In Rooted and Reduced to Dust, Smith says, Raff's work is "lacerating, honest, an inquest, finally, into the strength of love as it is conducted through the body into the poem."Jimmy Santiago Baca, winner of the American Book Award for poetry, calls Rooted and Reduced to Dust "observant, challenging, sensuous, glowing with an undercarriage of mystique." Baca hails the reverent physicality of Raff's poems: "[They] are torsos that twist to embrace the universe. Every muscled line is taut, knowing its desire and how to hold what it loves in its arms."
