Download or read book Incendiary Art written by Patricia Smith and published by Northwestern University Press. This book was released on 2017-02-15 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most magnetic and esteemed poets in today’s literary landscape, Patricia Smith fearlessly confronts the tyranny against the black male body and the tenacious grief of mothers in her compelling new collection, Incendiary Art. She writes an exhaustive lament for mothers of the "dark magicians," and revisits the devastating murder of Emmett Till. These dynamic sequences serve as a backdrop for present-day racial calamities and calls for resistance. Smith embraces elaborate and eloquent language— "her gorgeous fallen son a horrid hidden / rot. Her tiny hand starts crushing roses—one by one / by one she wrecks the casket’s spray. It’s how she / mourns—a mother, still, despite the roar of thorns"— as she sharpens her unerring focus on incidents of national mayhem and mourning. Smith envisions, reenvisions, and ultimately reinvents the role of witness with an incendiary fusion of forms, including prose poems, ghazals, sestinas, and sonnets. With poems impossible to turn away from, one of America’s most electrifying writers reveals what is frightening, and what is revelatory, about history.

Download or read book To Decorate a Casket written by Bill Ratner and published by . This book was released on 2021-05-14 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "I look for hidden meanings in incidental moments, poet Bill Ratner says in "Try My Luck," one of many intriguing poems in To Decorate A Casket. These highly original poems stir things up-a wild concoction of exploration, confession, and surreal fantasy, each topped with a soupçon of wry wit. Whether mourning the early demise of his beloved parents and older brother, or riffing on being the one left behind to come of age on his own, Ratner's poems find life's humor and sweetness. They kick off their shoes and dance with Death." -Alexis Rhone Fancher, author of Junkie Wife, Poetry editor of Cultural Weekly "Reading these poems, one can't help wondering if Ratner is a storyteller at heart who's found the form of the poem to convey the snapshots and short tales of his life, or if he's a poet who, like Homer, poured his dactyls into the epics of his time. Like a good storyteller, Ratner sidles up to you, whispers the opening of a tale, then brings in the big guns of poetry to make it all work. These poems are masterful, touching, evocative, and Ratner himself is a master-builder at work, a man who shapes words out of airy nothing and commands them to speak." -Jack Grapes, Last of the Outsiders, Chatwin Press "Bill Ratner's poetry is fearless and irreverent: bullets don't scare me / I survived one for my mother's breast / one for my brother's kidneys / one for my father's heart. He has gone through the tunnel and lived to tell the tale. Ratner holds nothing back, true to his own words, There is nothing so intimate / as a stranger's body / near you in the water. He invites you, the reader, to leave the shallow waters and meet him in the deep end." -Kohenet Rachel Kann, How to Bless the New Moon, Ben Yehuda Press

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Casket of Thoughts: Poems Thoughts Thoughts are like butterflies that we sometimes pinion Down to white pages, where we may dissect The mystery of life, and of Fate's dominion, The reason of a "cause" and its "effect." Yet, when we capture all the "species" fleeting Vaguely thro' regions where we cannot soar, Their blind ineptitude still leaves us beating Our hearts against blind mystery as before. So wisdom comes to those, who realizing then It is not well to know what God would hide, Courage and faith, is all He asks of men - There is no mystery on the "Other Side."
