Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is not years that measure and mark our lives, but moments; the individual events that mold our spirits and shape our destinies. In the course of our lives, like the branches of a broad tree, the situations we climb leave their signature on our hearts not only in that each changes us a little, but that each leaves us a little more sure of ourselves. I believe poems are short stories in the purest sense. These poems are the stand-out moments, the many stories of my life.

Download or read book Taste I Say You re Timeless written by Chuck Taylor and published by . This book was released on 2015-06-16 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Divine Unknown Everywhere - the light and darkness of it, the hopes and sorrows; the happiness and comedy; in the heart, the sky, the soil, the suns; in the people, the animals, the plants, the seas and bees and trees - that's the only song I wish to sing, the only song worth singing. -- Chuck Taylor Like Jack Kerouac, Taylor moves beyond the grand secular tradition of modern writing into the unknowable landscapes of the spiritual. This book is just what the name implies, a tour through the multiplicities of the human heart, a deconstructive exploration of the interpretive mind, a clever philosophical clutch at the divine sweetness of the human soul waiting beneath the exterior. -- Connie Williams The Prose Poem is one of the more controversial styles in the poetry world as it sounds like a massive contradiction. How can something that is prose be considered poetry? Well, it's not as black and white as that. Prose Poetry removes the line breaks and usual lyrical style while maintaining other poetry qualities. It is a less frightening style for readers who are not familiar with poetry, and a unique style for experienced poetry lovers. This collection seeks to bring readers of all kinds together through the use of poetic narrative, leaving behind the conventional style of poetry and moving into a widely experimental form. Prose Poetry has a good range where it can be taken. Though most are about a page, the pieces can be longer, depending on the artist behind the craft. Readers can expect to see a vastly human nature in the collection; experiencing moments of sympathy for others to the feeling of being alienated in conservative America. Taste, I Say, You're Timeless, is a fantastic beat style work, and one that simply cannot be ignored. It is a timeless collection! http: //www.weaselpress.com/#!chuck-taylor/c16ra

Book excerpt: Author and poet Chuck Florence has adopted a surprisingly simple approach to verse through Simplicity, that is both subtle and in your face. Within its pages you will find there is something for everyone. Florence's poetry, however simple, remains symbolic of life anywhere, or at anytime - offering refreshing views into spirit and nature. Sometimes erotic, sometimes indulging, his writings touch mostly upon that which is real, while still courting a bit of fantasy and humor. Through poetry, spirit has given itself to those precious moments in the author's life where nothing was spoken, only felt. In capturing these moments, it is his desire to preserve them in their simplest form, with as little distraction as possible. Florence's poetic pieces compel in their stark Simplicity as they manage to convey more with less words. Simple yet stirring, this compilation will lure readers into their own private reflections. Thank you for your purchase.

Download or read book Some Days the Spoons Talk Back written by Chuck Madansky and published by Kelsay Books. This book was released on 2021-09-13 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To read Chuck Madansky's poems is to be held by a joyful attention in which the poet speaks to dishes, listens to plants, and eats an apple as a sensual, spiritual act: Delicious, this becoming / each other can go on and on . . . Woven throughout are poems celebrating love grown from a long marriage in which neither of [them] ever expected this grace and are now looking together at the insistent press of mortality. These poems also grapple with issues of social justice, including the poet's own privilege. This is a book to return to, offering more with each subsequent reading and the wisdom from a long life, thoughtfully lived. -Jessica Jacobs & Nickole Brown, Award-winning co-authors of Write it! 100 Poetry Prompts to Inspire Not since Jane Hirshfield has a poet so deftly communicated the human experience to me. Chuck Madansky's imagery, intelligence, sound and sense, and spirituality give us the last giraffe gone from the earth, meditations on marriage, the seasons of life on Cape Cod, and all the splendor of moons and worlds, / spoons and rocks. Mastering forms and structures, this poet mines the interior of grief, pain, and longing against the backdrop of a divided and dying planet. Madansky inquires into our dilemma of impermanence, and the search for compassion. I always feel changed after reading Chuck Madansky's poetry. Go on, Turn and re-enter the uncertain light. Why? Because Madansky is a trusted friend. He is listening. -Janine Certo, author of ELIXIR, winner of the New American Poetry Prize and the Lauria-Frasca Poetry Prize This collection is layered with poems about the elemental, the old ways, what's in plain sight but often missed, the miracle of the natural world, and the tensile strength of relationships, memories, and love. Two threads run through all these layers. One is interesting language that beautifully personalizes and freshens the universal. The other is Madansky's willingness to take risks, to be honest about his best and worst (and ours, too). In one poem, he writes, I know this, know it so well / I could shake it like salt / over mashed potatoes / and you could taste my life. That's exactly what we do. -Lauren Wolk, Newberry Honor-winning author of the NY Times Bestseller Wolf Hollow
