Download or read book Love and Other Poems written by Alex Dimitrov and published by Copper Canyon Press. This book was released on 2021-02-18 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Alex Dimitrov’s third book, Love and Other Poems, is full of praise for the world we live in. Taking time as an overarching structure—specifically, the twelve months of the year—Dimitrov elevates the everyday, and speaks directly to the reader as if the poem were a phone call or a text message. From the personal to the cosmos, the moon to New York City, the speaker is convinced that love is “our best invention.” Dimitrov doesn’t resist joy, even in despair. These poems are curious about who we are as people and shamelessly interested in hope.

Book excerpt: The Purple Palace & other Poems is the debut Poetry collection by Artist Shayna Klee. The semi-autobiographical book is divided into two parts and takes place between two countries; Part I, "is a cloud a living thing?", takes place during the Author's tumultueuse teen years with tropical Florida as a backdrop. Part II, "Inside my Shell", explores themes of transformation as the Author creates a new life for herself in Paris, France. The poems in this collection explore the surreal rollercoaster of youth, the performance of identity, being an outsider and the tension between romantic idealism and the dystopic world in which the author finds herself. Her approach to her work as a visual artist is mirrored in her poetry style, which is accompanied by all original illustrations by the Author.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wearied of its own turning, Distressed with its own busy restlessness, Yearning to draw the circumferent pain- The rim that is dizzy with speed- To the motionless centre, there to rest, The wheel must strain through agony On agony contracting, returning Into the core of steel. And at last the wheel has rest, is still, Shrunk to an adamant core: Fulfilling its will in fixity. But the yearning atoms, as they grind Closer and closer, more and more Fiercely together, beget A flaming fire upward leaping, Billowing out in a burning, Passionate, fierce desire to find The infinite calm of the mother's breast...

Download or read book The Defeat of Youth and Other Poems written by Aldous Huxley and published by Graphic Arts Books. This book was released on 2021-02-16 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Defeat of Youth and Other Poems (1918) is a collection of poems by English author Aldous Huxley. Although Huxley is known foremost as a novelist, his poetry exhibits a mastery of language and an uncommon sense of the music inherent to words. The Defeat of Youth and Other Poems is his third poetry collection. “The Defeat of Youth” is a moving sonnet sequence on the passage of innocence to experience, on familiar transformation of love into lust. Capturing the experience of youthful attraction, Huxley imagines the moment in which the beloved “leans, and there is laughter in the face / She turns toward him; and it seems a door / Suddenly opened on some desolate place / With a burst of light and music.” As the young man awakens to the life of another, his vision turns tragically pure, molding an image of “immanence divine,” a face “in a flash of laughter” and a “young body with an inward flame.” As the poem unfolds, however, he feels only shame to have touched “things deadly to be desired.” Throughout this collection, Huxley explores the poet’s tendency to sing and to praise the world’s fleeting beauty while “[o]ther young men have been battling with the days / And others have been kissing the beautiful women.” The Defeat of Youth and Other Poems is the work of a poet uncertain of his visionary gift, doubtful of his art’s worth or purpose, yet sure of the power of language. With a beautifully designed cover and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of Aldous Huxley’s The Defeat of Youth and Other Poems is a classic of English literature reimagined for modern readers.

Download or read book The Youth of Beauty written by Cecil Roberts and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-09 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Youth of Beauty: And Other Poems One of the most hopeful signs for the future is the appearance of a band of young poets in the land, anxious to turn away the reproach that the poetry which has been so long a proud national heritage is ours no longer; and among these young poets who, to a considerable native gift, have added a high seriousness and devotion to their art, Mr. Roberts occupies an honoured position, for he has justified the hopes aroused by his earliest work, and has now stepped beyond the dangers and fears that assail the path of the youthful poet. He has been wise and courageous in that he has avoided sensation and violence in an age when the unusual is acclaimed by a body of men who find no virtue in precedent, and worship the extravagant and bizarre. He has been content to tread the old paths, learning his art, and acquiring a technique which has qualified him for longer and more adventurous flights. 'A master of metre, ' as 'The Times' said, he has written narrative, lyrical and dramatic verse with success, and though it is early to predict in which field the poet will finally work, this versatility augurs well for the future. There is in Mr. Roberts' poetry a gentle spirit, somewhat brooding, and occasionally pessimistic, but he escapes the traditional fault of young poets by the light that emanates from his philosophy, and reveals a glory shining through the gloom of despair. To quote one lyric, we feel that - 'Art, with its deeper sight, has seen Something to which the world is blind.'
