Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Voices of the Wind: And Other Poems Voice of the Wind.

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.

Download or read book Spirit of the Storm written by David Irving Dobson and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-08-21 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Spirit of the Storm: And Other Poems Poets are traditionally supposed (by red-blooded people) to be continually bemoaning their unhappy fate. The truth is that red-blooded people indulge in their feverish and largely meaningless activities, in order not to have any time to contemplate their own unhappy fate - the realization of which would be unendurable. The poet is braver; he can face the truth about his fate. And he has that courage precisely because he can see himself, from high above and from far off, as one of many. So that when he speaks for himself he is - in the degree of his perception - speaking for others. It is for this reason that when we can not write poetry we read it. We find ourselves, in our most secret moods, mirrored in another '8 poems. The poet reveals our hiddenmost hopes and fears to us. And conversely, those who read poetry are those who are debarred only by some technical limitation from Writing it. They are potential poets. Hence the poet has always in a sense, fellow-poets for an audience. And he pleases them to the degree in which he utters for them their unwritten poems. The Here and Now in which mankind is imprisoned has never, it would seem, been more irksome to the im patient soul than since the introduction Oi machinery. It seems that we can bear almost anything better than our nineteenth and twentieth century servitude to the machine. Poets, no matter how' gloomy a view of human fate they took, used to find many things to be incidentally enthusiastic about - such as owers, and stars, and beauti ful women. But the owers are being pushed further and further out of sight by the huge extensions of city brick and mortar; the stars are more and more hidden from our gaze by factory smoke; and beautiful women no longer seen as the consolations of a dreary life, but rather as fellow-victims, are quite as likely to evoke pity as admiration. Thus poetry becomes less and less calcu lated to give immediate cheer; even in its more ostensibly gay moods, it has an undertone of mocking irony. But it has a deeper comfort, which all those who have suffered, and are not afraid to remember it, must ever be grate ful for.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from In the Paths of the Wind The Sower Who Reaped the Sea The road was dusty and the grass was gray Along the roadside. In the harvest field That I was passing heat-waves surged above The fallen grain, and butterflies moved there Like derelicts of Dreams. An old man stopped His reaping and looked up with reddened eyes, Dust from the grain had settled on his face And sweat had washed innumerable paths To nowhere. When he saw me watching him A smile broke through the crust, and then he laughed, "Go wash your face if you'd make fun o' mine " "How is the crop?" I asked. He mopped the sweat Upon his brow and answered, "None too good. I sowed too late in season for the drouth." "The same with me," I said. "What did you sow?' He asked me, looking at my city clothes. "Some wild oats and a bag o' Dreams," I said, And laughed a little harshly - for the dust. He thought awhile and then his deep voice said, "Well, we are better off than one I knew - The sower who reaped the Sea, the bitter Sea " About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Snowflake and Other Poems And I would sigh in the depths of sky And die in distant lands. But who can prove to the plea of love, Unyielding and unkind 7' At love's low call we hasten all, Like leaves at the voice of wind. And ere the moon at the night's high noon Had twelve times orbed grown, My heart was stirred at a whispered word, My soul was not mine own. My lover was fair as the balmy air That follows after storm, When the careless sea, with a song of glee, Trips over the shallows warm. He was the first through the gloom that burst To bring the dawn to me, And he was the last from my sight that passed When darkness walked the sea. One shimmering day, as asleep I lay Upon the tide-worn sand, He stole apart, with an eager heart, From all the sunny band. He came to me, as I lay thought free, And bent my couch above, And while I slumbered, with words unnumbered, He pleaded for my love; Then as I woke at the words he spoke, And rising turned to flee, I was closely pressed to his ardent breast, And kisses were rained on me.

Book excerpt: "David Orr is no starry-eyed cheerleader for contemporary poetry; Orr’s a critic, and a good one. . . . Beautiful & Pointless is a clear-eyed, opinionated, and idiosyncratic guide to a vibrant but endangered art form, essential reading for anyone who loves poetry, and also for those of us who mostly just admire it from afar." —Tom Perrotta Award-winning New York Times Book Review poetry columnist David Orr delivers an engaging, amusing, and stimulating tour through the world of poetry. With echoes of Francine Prose’s Reading Like a Writer, Orr’s Beautiful & Pointless offers a smart and funny approach to appreciating an art form that many find difficult to embrace.

Download or read book The Double Night and Other Poems Classic Reprint written by Morrison Heady and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-18 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Double Night and Other Poems Before his blindness he had received the bare rudiments of an English education in the country schools of that day. Later he spent a year at the Kentucky Institute for the Blind, and fourteen months at the Ohio Institute, leaving the latter when about twenty years of age. Meanwhile he had applied himself earnestly to the study of music. His mental activity seems to have been stimulated by his deprivations. He read eagerly everything printed in raised type, and, until he lost his hearing, extended his knowledge of books with the aid of friends who enjoyed reading aloud to him. Of the poems in this volume, most were written after Mr. Heady's fortieth year. I have said they are almost unique in interest; nor do I use this term simply because their author is blind and deaf. They contain one of the most elaborate experiments in hexameter yet made by an English poet, and that, too, by an English poet entirely ignorant of the classic models. The grammarian, Noble Butler, once congratulated Mr. Heady on this fact, on the ground that a knowledge of Homeric and Virgilian hexameter could not but impede an English poet. Whether fortunate or unfortunate in this respect, Mr. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
