Download or read book A Collection of Poetry for Every Season and Reason written by Maria M. Swaringen and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2008-09 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A great treasure of the French people was brought to New Orleans from France in 1792 by the La Porte family. This treasure ultimately ends up in the hands of Waco Baptiste, whose mother was a Wichita Indian and whose father was a French trader. What Waco does with the treasure will certainly entertain and educate the reader. The book is divided into two parts. The first covers the period from 1750 to 1876. The second part jumps forward to 1995 through 2005, and follows the footsteps of Sara Wind Cloud, a young woman of the Wichita tribe, who makes a great discovery during her studies as a history major at Cameron University in Lawton, Oklahoma. Her discovery ultimately leads her to the treasure of the Wichita which Waco Baptiste swore in an oath of secrecy to his wife, Julian La Porte, to protect at all costs. Waco Baptiste certainly accomplished his mission, and Sara Wind Cloud brings closure to the mystery in a manner which the reader should find both fair and honorable to all parties.
Download or read book The Tilt Torn Away from the Seasons written by Elizabeth Lindsey Rogers and published by Acre. This book was released on 2020 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Tilt Torn Away from the Seasons imagines a human mission to Mars, a consequence of Earth's devastation from climate change and natural disaster. As humans begin to colonize the planet, history inevitably repeats itself. Dystopian and ecopoetic, this collection of poetry examines the impulse and danger of the colonial mindset, and the ways that gendered violence and ecological destruction, body and land, are linked. "This time we'll form more carefully," one voice hopes in "Ecopoiesis: The Terraforming." "We've started on empty / plains. We'll vaccinate. We'll make the new deal fair." But the new planet becomes a canvas on which the trespasses of the American Frontier are rehearsed and remade. Featuring a multiplicity of narratives and voices, this book presents the reader with sonnet crowns, application forms, and large-scale landscape poems that seem to float across the field of the page. With these unusual forms, Rogers also reminds us of previous exploitations on our own planet: industrial pollution in rural China, Marco Polo's racist accounts of the Batak people in Indonesia, and natural disasters that result in displaced refugees. Striking, thought-provoking, and necessary, The Tilt Torn Away from the Seasons offers a new parable for our modern times.
