Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Outlaws in literature are rogues who carry no gun, but fire into the center of our awareness. They use the present, past, and interior world of their dreaming and living. John Dorsey has done a hell of a job! This book will give you a thought provoking introduction to Dorsey's style and talent. I find his writing clear, weirdly funny, moving, and sorrowful. If I were to compare John Dorsey to a respected literary figure, it would have to be Ed Abbey. Both were protectors and observers and laid it out to be remembered!" -Ann Menebroker, Author of tiny teeth: The Wormwood Review Poems R.L. Crow Publications, 2004. "I read John Dorsey's compelling, lyrical book in one sitting. He mixes beautiful imagery, insight, candor, vulnerability and wit. What a very cool sandwich!: )" -ellyn maybe, Author of the cowardice of amnesia 2.13.61 Publications, 1998. "I always know when I am reading a John Dorsey poem. His style is uniquely his. It's as unmistakable as a Greg Corso or a Kell Robertson poem. It's playful, dark, bardic and authentically American." -Todd Moore, Author of Dillinger's Thompson Phony Lid Publications, 2002. "I've written about John Dorsey before. He's a vagabond angel, a word lunatic, a visionary. I saw him read at The Beat Museum and it blew me away. If Gregory Corso and Allen Ginsberg have a spiritual heir, it's John Dorsey. He is carrying the torch, lighting the landscape, singing alone in the wasteland. There is nobody that touches him. Nobody comes close. True genius. Every poem is a complete reward for the moments spent reading it. I feel honored to have met him. I hope to God I see him read again." -David Barker, Author of Charles Bukowski Spit in My Face, a Memoir Salem, Or, 1982.

Download or read book Walk with Me written by Sharon Canfield Dorsey and published by . This book was released on 2020-10-07 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sharon Canfield Dorsey's Walk With Me invites the reader to join her on a journey through an encyclopedia of experiences. From paying homage to her Native American heritage to giving voice as a social justice warrior for the homeless, and from falling in love to delighting in little children, this author shares both grief and humor, poses timeless questions, and causes her reader to ponder and rejoice. Her gift of storytelling and use of vivid imagery evoke strong emotions and quick understanding. Come, walk with her through the seasons of her life where "The days tumble over each other like scarlet maple leaves in October" and where "Heroes . . . emerge from the clay of circumstance." Janice Hoffman, Award Winning Poet Author of Soul Cookies Sharon Dorsey takes her readers through a beautifully written, emotionally stimulating ride with her new book, Walk With Me. Her powerful reminiscence of her Great Grandmother blends wonderful imagery with authentic nostalgia to create a truly historic person. Sharon uses the richness of her travel and exploring experience to present a Native American's version of a history of the West not taught in school. Although most of her work is written in free verse, she does dabble in forms with acrostics and ABC poems, but most seriously in a sestina that takes the Native American culture from a time of degradation to an almost glorious resurrection of spirit. In "Night Symphony" Edward W. Lull President (Emeritus) The Poetry Society of Virginia Walk With Me is an adventure, a journey, and a feast for the eyes. With reverence for her Native American heritage, readers will come to understand that Sharon's landscape has been shaped by proud, strong forces. Her poems ring with honesty, at times humor, tenderness, and insight. For anyone who wants to experience the gift of storytelling through poetry, written with words carefully chosen, this collection is a must. Ann Falcone Shalaski author of World Made of Glass, Without Pretense, and Just So You Know

With judicious use of the Oxford comma, pop culture trivia, common mystery tropes, and a keen eye for deceit, our protagonist swaggers through the mean streets of — yes, a Canadian city! — and discovers that what seems at first to be just a grotty little street killing is actually the surface of a grandiose and glittering set of criminal schemes.

Download or read book The Wine dark Sea written by Mathias Svalina and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poetry. In a clear-cut voice "as simple as ink," Mathias Svalina's THE WINE-DARK SEA vocalizes the urge to write oneself alive. Through this lyric journal of taut poems, each titled The Wine-Dark Sea, Svalina breathes life into overlooked places: the driveway a car turns into at the end of a workday, how a tree holds the dirt, the edge of a page on which "I'd always assumed / I'd die alone." Every poem is a baffled drop, a pulse trying not to be dead, and beneath the spine of each sentence, Svalina hides, carrying us, seeking an exit. It is impossible not to be stained by THE WINE-DARK SEA.

Book excerpt: Most of the time we look at our lives from the back side of the tapestry. All we see are loose threads, tangled knots, and the mistakes we made in the process. Once in awhile, we see the light shining through the weaving and the larger design appears, the beautiful side that everyone else sees. In this, her first book of poems, Sharon Canfield Dorsey weaves a poetic pilgrimage through life's maze of joy, pathos, obstacles, and victories. Told with honesty and humor, it is a reminder that the human spirit overcomes, heals, and finds joy at all ages. Sharon grew up in Appalachia. This daughter of a coal miner takes you along on her journey through divorce, single parenting, and meeting her soul mate in her forties. Her poems reflect a lifetime of searching for roots, truth, justice, and love. Sometimes funny, sometimes tragic, they inspire the want-a-be "dragon slayer" that lives in each of us.
Download or read book From Jersey to Belle written by John Dorsey and published by Laughing Ronin Press. This book was released on 2022-12-07 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this wonderful split collection by Tohm Bakelas and John Dorsey, it's as if Missouri and New Jersey had a lovechild who was forged in the fire of a Toledo glass factory and then locked away, ostensibly forever, in a psych asylum, only to escape and hit the road with a livestream crew following him. And then everyone who witnesses the former lovechild who's evolved into a glove master is fascinated by his many-fingered travels through true life that are then transcribed into poems and bound into this volume for your marveling mordant and often morbid delectation. In other words, these poets have experienced a world of wildness, wonder and woe and know how to use their implements to pierce the complacent heart and lay bare the visceral essence of humanity. - John Burroughs, 2021-22 U.S. National Beat Poet Laureate Found within the pages of "From Jersey to Belle" is a guide to survival for people suffering from shared isolation, an isolation created by distance, poverty, race, sanity, and grief. Tohm Bakelas teaches readers to find smiling comforts and leads them to deep wells of gentle soothing hope, while John Dorsey eases the torments of living by composing songs of celebration for the archetypes of joy and freedom. - Jonathan S Baker, Co-editor of the Grind Stone, author of "Cock of the Walk"
