Download or read book Circling Round Woman written by Arlene Corwin and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2011-08-05 with total page 195 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Generally speaking, my collections 'circle' around something, providing me with a wide berth for treatment. So with the exception of the few things of which I have more certainty, as in my collections A Sense of The Ridiculous' or I Is Always You Is Me.--certainties which don't need a prefix verb, the subject of woman demands circling around it. 'Woman' means half the planetary population. I would hope to reach all ages but I suspect that this particular collection will speak most to the mature woman, the woman who has begun to notice her aging processes." As in To The Child Mystic (Authorhouse), Circling Round Woman is an unintentional memoir-cum-instruction book in poetic form: sharply observational, pragmatic, personal; nonchalantly, funnily and unscientifically scientific. Women friends of the author have commented that some of the poems have changed their lives, they being able to identify themselves with the theme. "When you can identify with a thing, you feel its universality and you feel accepted", say Ms Corwin. Circling Round Woman is concrete; easy reading, deep reading; philosophical and playful all at once. Circling Round Woman makes you laugh, cry and remember. It reminds you of who you are and what you are becoming.
Download or read book Circling Round Nature written by Arlene Corwin and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2014-05-28 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Arlene Corwin is not thinking about music, yoga, our times and culture, God, love relationships, baths, coffee, time or science, she makes it a practice to write about something in nature - just to keep her poetic mind in trim. It usually begins with a simple observation a siting perhaps. Then, being the person she is, the siting suggests, evokes, implies expands. You could call it a meditation on nature in its many forms nature, including her own. Circling Round Nature has as wide a scope as has nature, the opportunities for observations and reactions diverse, endless. Nature is the flattened frog on the road, the mushroom, the plasticized face, the weather, cycles involved in everything: all the forces controlling the physical world. The result has become a mix of of 269 minutely observed, moving, thought provoking but colloquial and often downright funny poems. Written over a period of some 60 odd years, they continue to be written and collected right up to the minute of publication. After many years of practicing the poet's craft, Arlene Corwin, has honed her skills so that many -- almost any -- observation prompts her to poetry. Her poetry is clear and straightforward. The words on the page are as willowy and lithe as if they, like their author, were an experienced and accomplished yoga practitioner. But, better than that, Arlene is also a lifelong jazz musician and brings to her poetry a sensitivity to sound, line and rhythm and that is always musical. Like any lifelong meditator, she brings as well, insights -- not in a ponderous tone of voice but simply, with keen observation and sensitivity. These are poems to read and reread and savor as you would a recording of a good jazz set. - June Calendar
Download or read book Circling Round Yoga Science War Cats written by Arlene Corwin and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2013-12-26 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Circling Round Yoga, Science, War & Cats is a book of four poetry collections, each intended to express the universal; a unity in variety. Ms. Corwin: In Circling Round Yoga, Ive circled around varieties of yoga by including such subjects as recipes, thoughts about cooking, meditative reflections and recommendations, direct, unsystematic and definitely incomplete; recommendations for getting rid of loneliness: ideas that circle around the diverse paths of yoga. In Circling Round Science it was hard to draw a line between the intuitive, the spiritual, the philosophic and the scientific. Sometimes I feel like a combination charlatan-cum-dilettante with nothing to use but limited knowledge and intuition. I loved words like ionized, fractal, little green men from Mars, unified theory, red shift, continuumthey were oases of inspiration; an overlap of poetic speculations and quasi-science. War Book is self-explanatory. Its anti-. It may moan a bit. A killing phenomenon unjustifiable, despicable, one is impelled to say something. And finally Cat Book, a collection based on lovingly unsentimental observations of the only cats Ive known: Sootis and Albert, who were and are more than a mice eliminating part of my life.
Download or read book Circling Round Everything 2015 2016 written by Arlene Corwin and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2017-05-26 with total page 575 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lifes not a cloud of hodgepodge, but a sparkle of connections and reconnections disparate in appearance. Theres not a noun that fits. Not one cloud', sparkle, not one verb, adjective or noun that covers it because this thread of being is always changing its appearance. So we write. Differing poems, differing themes. But all one chain of links of different sizes and shapes: variations on a theme. One long metaphor for being-ness connected by causes subtle and apparent, immediate and easy to trace or long back and untraceable. With not one single word to take it all in, to describe it, name it, it is an appearance, a going-on. A perpetual ongoing. Also something to see through, to be comforted by when it looks like a cause for suffering, something to enjoy when it does not. It is lists of inadequate words and findings, of gradualness leading to suddenness, of the invisible to visible. Its everything. So we write about everything.
