Download or read book Mesmerizingly Sadly Beautiful written by Matthew Lippman and published by Four Way Books Levis Prize in. This book was released on 2020 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the "Age of the Bullet," Matthew Lippman writes in Mesmerizingly Sadly Beautiful, days in which "bullets sprout other bullets in the bullet garden" and a caricature of a onesie-wearing president sucking on a pacifier appears on the cover of a national magazine. Lippman's poems are wildly inventive yet grounded in the 21st-century dailyness of parenting and dinner parties and Dunkin Donuts, all of which serve as launch pads into perennial questions of mercy and trust. "I don't care what you say about this city," Lippman writes in the title poem whose images recall New York City in the days following 9/11: "We sit down together on the sidewalk / and we hold one another." These are brash, beautiful poems, big-hearted in their tilt toward sentimentality and their yearning for something more, something better.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After almost thirty years, it seems that the poetry part of God’s journey for me might be coming to a close. This will be the third and final book of His published poems. I do realize that I am just the loyal and loving servant that He chose to be one of His penman’s. The previous other two books, “From God’s Heart, to Mine, to Yours” and “More, From God’s Heart, to Mine, to Yours” have been well received and I have heard nothing but good and blessed comments about them, as I am sure with this one I will also. Besides being blessed to publish God’s poems, I am also blessed to present musical PowerPoint presentations to shut-ins. How awesome it is to be able to reach out with God’s Love and touch another soul in need. This part of the His journey for me will continue until He says, “Rest”. To understand fully His impact on my life I encourage all to visit my website, www.glowny.org, “God’s Love Outreach Western New York.
Download or read book Gentle and Lowly written by Dane C. Ortlund and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2020-03-18 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christians know that God loves them, but can easily feel that he is perpetually disappointed and frustrated, maybe even close to giving up on them. As a result, they focus a lot—and rightly so—on what Jesus has done to appease God’s wrath for sin. But how does Jesus Christ actually feel about his people amid all their sins and failures? This book draws us to Matthew 11, where Jesus describes himself as “gentle and lowly in heart,” longing for his people to find rest in him. The gospel flows from God’s deepest heart for his people, a heart of tender love for the sinful and suffering. These chapters take readers into the depths of Christ’s very heart for sinners, diving deep into Bible passages that speak of who Christ is and encouraging readers with the affections of Christ for his people. His longing heart for sinners comforts and sustains readers in their up-and-down lives.

Download or read book Sleeping with the Dictionary written by Harryette Mullen and published by Univ of California Press. This book was released on 2002-02-22 with total page 99 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Harryette Mullen's fifth poetry collection, Sleeping with the Dictionary, is the abecedarian offspring of her collaboration with two of the poet's most seductive writing partners, Roget's Thesaurus and The American Heritage Dictionary. In her ménage à trois with these faithful companions, the poet is aware that while Roget seems obsessed with categories and hierarchies, the American Heritage, whatever its faults, was compiled with the assistance of a democratic usage panel that included black poets Langston Hughes and Arna Bontemps, as well as feminist author and editor Gloria Steinem. With its arbitrary yet determinant alphabetical arrangement, its gleeful pursuit of the ludic pleasure of word games (acrostic, anagram, homophone, parody, pun), as well as its reflections on the politics of language and dialect, Mullen's work is serious play. A number of the poems are inspired or influenced by a technique of the international literary avant-garde group Oulipo, a dictionary game called S+7 or N+7. This method of textual transformation--which is used to compose nonsensical travesties reminiscent of Lewis Carroll's "Jabberwocky"--also creates a kind of automatic poetic discourse. Mullen's parodies reconceive the African American's relation to the English language and Anglophone writing, through textual reproduction, recombining the genetic structure of texts from the Shakespearean sonnet and the fairy tale to airline safety instructions and unsolicited mail. The poet admits to being "licked all over by the English tongue," and the title of this book may remind readers that an intimate partner who also gives language lessons is called, euphemistically, a "pillow dictionary."
