Download or read book Immiscible Damage written by Mekia Johnson and published by Alpha Book Publisher. This book was released on 2022-03-16 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We are not defined by what impairs us, but by the results of the repair in us. Being damaged is when the body goes into destruction. This cycle of mutilation eventually interchanges, activating a defense mechanism, allowing the body to reboot to become operable again. Immiscible Damage is a collection of themed poetry that captures different levels of one being damaged or hurt, while experiencing a breakthrough of recovery. There are levels of being damaged and they are immiscible. The damages are incapable of being mixed because once they have been vibrated together, they can and will be divided into layers which become levels of reconstructing the body. First, we may experience a sense of fear when we are damaged by the outcome of a situation or change. Fear can cause us to become broken. But once we identify that we are indeed damaged because of how broken we may feel, we begin the repair cycle and become openminded of a chance to be better. We then become hopeful again, causing the body to experience love and its existence. Once love has been conquered and persevered, serotonin levels are increased. The brain then accesses a level so intense, full of life’s most ultimate pleasures, a level of psychedelic euphoria. Once euphoria is reached, your cycle of being damaged becomes obsolete.

Download or read book Collateral Damage written by Bárbara Mujica and published by University of Virginia Press. This book was released on 2021-03-16 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Homer to Tim O’Brien, war literature remains largely the domain of male writers, and traditional narratives imply that the burdens of war are carried by men. But women and children disproportionately suffer the consequences of conflict: famine, disease, sexual abuse, and emotional trauma caused by loss of loved ones, property, and means of subsistence. Collateral Damage tells the stories of those who struggle on the margins of armed conflict or who attempt to rebuild their lives after a war. Bringing together the writings of female authors from across the world, this collection animates the wartime experiences of women as military mothers, combatants, supporters, war resisters, and victims. Their stories stretch from Rwanda to El Salvador, Romania to Sri Lanka, Chile to Iraq. Spanning fiction, poetry, drama, essay, memoir, and reportage, the selections are contextualized by brief author commentaries. The first collection to embrace so wide a range of contemporary authors from such diverse backgrounds, Collateral Damage seeks to validate and shine a light on the experiences of women by revealing the consequences of war endured by millions whose voices are rarely heard.
