Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Prairie Born and Other Poems Prairie Born. We have heard the night wind howling as we lay alone in bed; We have heard the grey goose honking as he journeyed overhead; We have smelt the smoke-wraith flying in the hot October wind, And have fought the fiery demon that came roaring down behind; We have seen the spent snow sifting through the key-hole of the door, And the frost-line crawling, crawling, like a snake, along the floor; We have felt the storm-fiend wrestle with the rafters in his might, And the baffled blizzard shrieking through the turmoil of the night.

Download or read book Immortal Prairie and Other Poems written by James H. Ransom and published by FriesenPress. This book was released on 2015-06-03 with total page 65 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: James Ransom presents readers with poems covering an astonishing diversity of subjects. There are iconic echoes in some of them—Auden, Eliot and Shakespeare, as well as John Crowe Ransom and Christian Wiman—but comprehending the poems is never dependent on the reader’s scholarship. These poems are plain-spoken and heartfelt. The subjects include observations of nature—prairie landscapes of Kansas (title poem) as well as the crags and forests of Scotland. You will be taken to an emergency room and surgery; you will also read about the arson of a church, even the demise of a fish. There are lessons from history and ironic observations about poetry itself. A sense of humor is found in unexpected places. Ransom reflects on childhood and maturity, and on his love and admiration for family members with challenges to meet. He is not afraid to confront questions of religion and faith in unorthodox ways. Political themes are not taboo here, but neither do they dominate. For a clash of cultures, read “Interview From Kotzebue.” Or try “Darfur.” Unlike the tradition of most books of poetry, Ransom includes photos and paintings. He believes that we live immersed in a culture of image and motion, which can be used to add another dimension to some poems. In that sense, this book is an experiment. If you have been confused, bored or disappointed by modern poetry, this book may help you re-engage.

Download or read book Cannibal written by Safiya Sinclair and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2016-09 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Colliding with and confronting The Tempest and postcolonial identity, the poems in Safiya Sinclair's Cannibal explore Jamaican childhood and history, race relations in America, womanhood, otherness, and exile. She evokes a home no longer accessible and a body at times uninhabitable, often mirrored by a hybrid Eve/Caliban figure. Blooming with intense lyricism and fertile imagery, these full-blooded poems are elegant, mythic, and intricately woven. Here the female body is a dark landscape; the female body is cannibal. Sinclair shocks and delights her readers with her willingness to disorient and provoke, creating a multitextured collage of beautiful and explosive poems.

Download or read book Taste of Cherry written by Kara Candito and published by U of Nebraska Press. This book was released on 2009 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Kara Candito's prize-winning debut collection a "garish/human theatre" comes to life against richly textured geographic and psychic landscapes. These poems are high-speed meditations on a world where Walter Benjamin meets the "glitzy chain-link of Chanel scarves" and Puccini's Tosca meets the din of the Times Square subway station. Ferociously witty and intensely lyrical, Taste of Cherry speaks to us in a language that is simultaneously private and public, sensual and cerebral.
