Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When five-year-old Yolanda is sexually abused by her own father, saying her life will never be the same again is an understatement. She became the subject of her father’s sexual desires, and he raped her repeatedly, almost every night, for ten years. When her younger sister was born, she decided to act to put an end to this unspeakable crime. Many years later, she finds herself suffering the effects of the horrible nightmare from her past that still haunts her. Yolanda is still bound with the bitter tragedy from her childhood until she marries and has kids on her own. She is not without pain and hurt. She is still broken. Looking for a Fire Exit is Yolanda’s story. This book screams for justice and brings attention to the unspeakable acts of corrupting our children. The text is filled with stories that might be offensive and graphic, and that is exactly the purpose of this book: to highlight the horror of sexual abuse and child molestation that still threatens the safety of our children. People care about the victims of sexual assault and rape, but do we care enough to act? Not all the monsters disappear when you pull the covers up over your head!

Download or read book The Big Book of Exit Strategies written by Jamaal May and published by Alice James Books. This book was released on 2016-04-18 with total page 142 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Praise for Jamaal May: "Linguistically acrobatic [and] beautifully crafted. . . . [Jamaal May's] poems, exquisitely balanced by a sharp intelligence mixed with earnestness, makes his debut a marvel."—Publishers Weekly Following Jamaal May's award-winning debut collection, Hum (2013), these new poems explore parallel landscapes of the poet's interior and an insidious American condition. Using dark humor that helps illuminate the pains of maturity and loss of imagination, May uncovers language like a skilled architect—digging up bones of the past to expose what lies beneath the surface of the fragile human condition. From: "Ask Where I've Been": Ask about the tornado of fists. The blows landed. If you can watch it all—the spit and blood frozen against snow, you can probably tell I am the too-narrow road winding out of a crooked city built of laughter, abandon, feathers and drums. Ask only if you can watch streetlights bow, bridges arc, and power lines sag, and still believe what matters most is not where I bend but where I am growing. Jamaal May is a poet, editor, and filmmaker from Detroit, Michigan, where he taught poetry in public schools and worked as a freelance audio engineer and touring performer. His poetry won the 2013 Indiana Review Poetry Prize and appears in journals such as Poetry, Ploughshares, the Believer, NER, and the Kenyon Review. May has earned an MFA from Warren Wilson College as well as fellowships from Cave Canem and The Stadler Center for Poetry at Bucknell University. He founded the Organic Weapon Arts Chapbook Press.
