Book excerpt: You are now looking at PILLAR 3, The LOVE Pillar, from Volume 1 of The Poetry Trilogy, The Largest Collection of Poetry EVER Published by a single Author.Here is a full description of The Poetry Trilogy and The 7 Pillars...1 - Trilogy3 - Volumes6 - Countries7 - Pillars - GOD, LIFE, LOVE, HATE, TRAVELS, REALIZATIONS, DEATH700 - Poems 2400 - Pages300,000 - Words The Poetry Trilogy is a monumental Masterpiece. The combined works of The Trilogy is larger in volume than both the New and Old Testaments combined. There is a massive amount of information within these pages, and I ask that you PLEASE only read a few poems a day so that your subconscious Self can absorb all of the information I have written fully.I believe that The Poetry Trilogy is, "The Greatest Collection of Poetry" ever published. Not just because of the magnitude of this work,but because of the diversity found within the pages.It's a compilation compiled from, dozens of countries with emotions, from thousands of people from all over the world.From the deserts of Africa,to the jungles of South America,from the greatest cities in the World,to the highest mountains and deep oceans,this is the collective pulse,of our planet, and our people. A Living Testimony of the current state of our Humanity.Each Volume, of The Poetry Trilogy, is divided into 7 sections, each section being a Pillar. The Seven Pillars, of The Poetry Trilogy are in a major sense, the story of every persons journey here on Earth, both internally and external, as well as being a reflection, of the collective Life of the Creation of Humanity. Pillar 1 is God, because I believe God is where we all come from, it is the Beginning, and in The Beginning there was only God. Pillar 2 is Life, because Life is where our journey, here on Earth begins. Pillar 3 is Love, Love is the ascension, to higher emotional vibrations, is the strongest of all emotions, and plays a central part in our existence, both independently as collectively. Pillar 4, Hate, Hate is the descent, into the deepest darkest depths of the Human mind, and of Humanity as well. Almost as equally strong as Love, Hate is Love's polar opposite, and is equally essential to existence.This is an example of the Law of Dualities, as mentioned by HERMES and other prophets. After Pillar 4, we escape the Hate through our adventures in Pillar 5, Travels. Pillar 5, Travels, Travels takes us on a journey around the world, and through exploring and discovering the World, we explore and discover our Self, discovery of the Self leads us to Pillar 6, Illuminations. Pillar 6, Illuminations, with Illuminations,all of the Darkness is illuminated. Light will always be stronger than The Darkness. If ever in doubt remember, a single candle can light up an entire room. The Darkness can not be wherever The Light is. When the Darkness is illuminated by The Light, all the veils are lifted, and we see, God without the illusions of Religion, we see, Life without the illusions of The Ego, we see, Love without the illusions of Lust, we see, Hate without the illusions of Anger, we see, Travels without the illusions of Physical Matter, we see, Illuminations without the illusions of Thought, and we see, Death, without the illusions of Fear. This naturally brings us to The Final Pillar.Pillar 7, Death. Death, is Death of Ego, Death of Body, Death of all that we thought was true, undeniably discovered, through Death of the Physical Body or Self. Death is to Life, what Hate is to Love, the necessary counterbalance of Duality. For indeed the only guarantee in the Life experience,is that we will all have the Death experience as well.Pillar 7 completes the cycle, of our non-existential existence in Earth. And with the completion of the Pillars, you will have the completion of The Poetry Trilogy.

Larkin, often, is more than memorable: he is instantly unforgettable.' - Martin Amis

Download or read book Nightingale written by Paisley Rekdal and published by Copper Canyon Press. This book was released on 2019-06-18 with total page 91 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nightingale is a book about change. This collection radically rewrites and contemporizes many of the myths central to Ovid’s epic, The Metamorphoses, Rekdal’s characters changed not by divine intervention but by both ordinary and extraordinary human events. In Nightingale, a mother undergoes cancer treatments at the same time her daughter transitions into a son; a woman comes to painful terms with her new sexual life after becoming quadriplegic; a photographer wonders whether her art is to blame for her son’s sudden illness; and a widow falls in love with her dead husband’s dog. At the same time, however, the book includes more intimate lyrics that explore personal transformation, culminating in a series of connected poems that trace the continuing effects of sexual violence and rape on survivors. Nightingale updates many of Ovid’s subjects while remaining true to the Roman epic’s tropes of violence, dismemberment, silence, and fragmentation. Is change a physical or a spiritual act? Is transformation punishment or reward, reversible or permanent? Does metamorphosis literalize our essential traits, or change us into something utterly new? Nightingale investigates these themes, while considering the roles that pain, violence, art, and voicelessness all play in the changeable selves we present to the world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I DO SOLEMNLY SWEAR..That was my oath to my god and country in August 1963. I was an infantryman and a paratrooper for the U.S. Army. I fought for my country in Vietnam. After my discharge I was a self contractor and had a son and daughter. To this day that has been my life. Literally no legacy to be remembered by maybe my great or great great grandchildren. Now I need something so if someone asked them who I was, they could prove I was a real person and maybe Id be noted for something special. I dream constantly and write poetry and would like to publish a memoir. It has to start now at the age of sixty nine as my life has consisted of nothing special to this point. I would like to continue writing and publishing more poetry and a novel. My heart has stopped five times and now I am obsessed in having a legacy to put me in a category where I may be extra special for something. Maybe in thirty or forty years someone may say OH Yes, I Do Remember Him He..??
Download or read book A Stroll In The Garden written by Claudio Raspollini and published by Babelcube Inc. This book was released on 2020-12-11 with total page 109 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of poems was born from a project, that of writing significant moments of our lives as men, aroused by the reading of passages, significant for me of the Bible. Beginning with the passage from Genesis that speaks of the lost Paradise, Eden. From that place from which we all come and to which we all tend. If we strip ourselves of our desires, of the desire to be the center of the universe, the god to whom we sacrifice everything starting from health, love, children, money, then we will discover within us the desire to return to Jesus, the desire to be loved simply for what we are. If we let the child who cries out in the depths of the soul speak, then in that darkness we will discover His light, His love. We will finally see who we are and His outstretched hand ready to lead us with Him forever. This collection of poems is made up of three moments of my life's journey and a moment of contemplation.

This book was released on 2021-12-24 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present book is third in a series of works which aim to expose the complexity and essence, power and extent of the major periods, movements, trends, genres, authors, and literary texts in the history of English literature. Following this aim, the series will consist of monographs which cover the most important ages and experiences of English literary history, including Anglo-Saxon or Old English period, the Middle Ages, the Renaissance, the Restoration, neoclassicism, romanticism, Victorian Age, and the twentieth-century and contemporary literary backgrounds. The reader of these volumes will acquire the knowledge of literary terminology along with the theoretical and critical perspectives on certain texts and textual typology belonging to different periods, movements, trends, and genres. The reader will also learn about the characteristics and conventions of these literary periods and movements, trends and genres, main writers and major works, and the literary interaction and continuity of the given periods. Apart from an important amount of reference to literary practice, some chapters on these periods include information on their philosophy, criticism, worldview, values, or episteme, in the Foucauldian sense, which means that even though the condition of the creative writing remains as the main concern, it is balanced by a focus on the condition of thought as well as theoretical and critical writing during a particular period.
