Book excerpt: "Dying never / ends for us. It only slowly rearranges us," writes Steve Scafidi in his poignant new collection. Inspired by his own work as a cabinetmaker -- defined by the peppery dust from the woodworker planing a walnut board, turning an oak spindle at the lathe, or honing chisels while gazing out a window -- Scafidi's poems reveal both the tenuous and the everlasting nature of existence.

Download or read book Museum of the Americas written by J. Michael Martinez and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2018-10-02 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Longlisted for the 2018 National Book Award in Poetry Winner of the National Poetry Series Competition, selected by Cornelius Eady--an exploration in verse of imperial appropriation and Mexican American cultural identity "Marvelous, argumentative, and curiosity-provoking" --The New York Times Book Review The poems in J. Michael Martinez's third collection of poetry circle around how the perceived body comes to be coded with the trans-historical consequences of an imperial narrative. Engaging beautiful and otherworldly Mexican casta paintings, morbid photographic postcards depicting the bodies of dead Mexicans, the strange journey of the wood and cork leg of General Santa Anna, and Martinez's own family lineage, Museum of the Americas gives accounts of migrant bodies caught beneath, and fashioned under, a racializing aesthetic gaze. Martinez questions how "knowledge" of the body is organized through visual perception of that body, hypothesizing the corporeal as a repository of the human situation, a nexus of culture. Museum of the Americas' poetic revives and repurposes the persecuted ethnic body from the appropriations that render it an art object and, therefore, diposable.
Download or read book Homie written by Danez Smith and published by Graywolf Press. This book was released on 2020-01-21 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: FINALIST FOR THE 2020 NATIONAL BOOK CRITICS CIRCLE AWARD FOR POETRY FINALIST FOR THE 2021 NAACP IMAGE AWARD FOR POETRY Danez Smith is our president Homie is Danez Smith’s magnificent anthem about the saving grace of friendship. Rooted in the loss of one of Smith’s close friends, this book comes out of the search for joy and intimacy within a nation where both can seem scarce and getting scarcer. In poems of rare power and generosity, Smith acknowledges that in a country overrun by violence, xenophobia, and disparity, and in a body defined by race, queerness, and diagnosis, it can be hard to survive, even harder to remember reasons for living. But then the phone lights up, or a shout comes up to the window, and family—blood and chosen—arrives with just the right food and some redemption. Part friendship diary, part bright elegy, part war cry, Homie is the exuberant new book written for Danez and for Danez’s friends and for you and for yours.
Download or read book A Poet s Cabinet written by George Lansing Raymond and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-17 with total page 496 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Poet's Cabinet: Being Passages, Mainly Poetical, From the Works of George Lansing Raymond Cyclopedias of quotations are many and various, and yet each may have a particular value that fully justifies its existence. The editor may have collected standard quota tions, in which case his compilation possesses mainly the character of a reference work, giving the golden thoughts of the race in that mintage of artistic expression which has been stamped with approval by the masters of literature and accepted as sterling currency by the people. Such a work requires wide and accurate knowledge 1n its editor, but this alone; indeed the less literary discrimination he has the better it may be for a book recording confessedly the judgments of the men of the past whose endorsement of particular forms of expression has caused their incorporation into literature. The standards for constructing a work of this sort are identical with those of dictionary-making. Again, there is an order of cyclopedias of quotations in which the editor assumes the function of a connoisseur. He selects from accepted passages those whose form and substance meet With his special approval, and he adds other passages less known which in his opinion seem worthy of a similar incorporation into literature. If his taste and ability are such as to justify his purpose, the Work has itself some thing of the character of the literature with which it deals. It is a true anthology, valuable for inspiration as well as for reference and research. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Dark Thirty written by Santee Frazier and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 2009 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Writing sometimes in dialect, sometimes in gunshot bursts, sometimes in sinuous lines that snake across the page, Santee Frazier crafts poems that are edgy and restless. The poems in Dark Thirty, FrazierÕs debut collection, address subjects that are not often thought of as Òpoetic,Ó like poverty, alcoholism, cruelty, and homelessness. FrazierÕs poems emerge from the darkest corners of experience: ÒI search the cabinet and iceboxÑdrink the pickle juice / from the jar. Bologna, / hard at the edges, / browning on the kitchen / table since yesterday. / I search the cabinet and iceboxÑthe curdling / milk almost smells drinkable.Ó Dark Thirty takes us on a loosely autobiographical trip through Cherokee country, the backwoods towns and the big cities, giving us clear-eyed portraits of Native people surviving contemporary America. In FrazierÕs world, there is no romanticizing of Native American life. Here cops knock on the door of a low-rent apartment after a neighbor has been stabbed. Here a poemÕs narrator recalls firing a .38 pistolÑÒbarrel glowing like oil in a gutter-puddleÓ--for the first time. Here a young man catches a Greyhound bus to Flagstaff after his ex-girlfriend tells him he has fathered a child. Yet even in the midst of violence and despair there is time for the beauty of the world to shine through: ÒThe Cutlass rattling out / the last fumes of gas, engine stops, / the night dimly lit by the moon / hung over the treetops; / owls calling each other from / hilltop to valley bend.Ó Like viewing photographs that repel us even as they draw us in, we are pulled into these poems. WeÕre compelled to turn the page and read the next poem. And the next. And each poem rewards us with a world freshly seen and remade for us of sound and image and voice.
