Download or read book The Octopus and Other Poems written by Jennica Harper and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The central metaphor of the collection The Octopus and Other Poems is the search for new life in the universe -- to find something beyond ourselves, and simultaneously to be "found." The tension between wanting to understand, and giving in to the mysteries of the universe, culminates in the long poem "The Octopus," in which former lovers debate the merits of searching for extraterrestrial life. He considers it a futile and wasteful endeavour, particularly since there are "alien" life forms we don't understand right here on earth, like the octopus. She, on the other hand, comes to realize her enjoyment of the search isn't about aliens at all, but about the pleasure of simply hoping for something new, something spectacular. In the end, she believes that it's the hope of the search that matters, not finding or being found, but looking.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Come feel the cool and shadowed breeze, come smell your way among the trees, come touch rough bark and leathered leaves: Welcome to the night. Welcome to the night, where mice stir and furry moths flutter. Where snails spiral into shells as orb spiders circle in silk. Where the roots of oak trees recover and repair from their time in the light. Where the porcupette eats delicacies—raspberry leaves!—and coos and sings. Come out to the cool, night wood, and buzz and hoot and howl—but do beware of the great horned owl—for it’s wild and it’s windy way out in the woods!

Download or read book Alien Matter written by Regina Derieva and published by . This book was released on 2006-01-15 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poetry. Translated from the Russian by Alan Shaw, Robert Reid, Richard McKane, Andrey Gritsman, Peter France, Kevin Carey, and Ilya Bernstein. Edited by Hildred Crill. "The poetry of Regina Derieva is an outstanding and unusual phenomenon. It corresponds to the poetical experience of Mandelstam, Tsvetaeva, and Brodsky, and at the same time keeps pace not only with contemporary Russian but also perhaps world literature. Regina Derieva is a modern poet whoemploys not only traditional but also free verse. Yet she writes out of time, or rather, in the time of the Old Testament and Revelation. Whilereading Regina Derieva's poems, it occurred to me that tradition is something greater than only poetic tradition. Her poetic creations call to mind theWord--Psalms and Prophets, and especially the parables of the Gospels. Following elevated models, Regina Derieva sets in motion secret resources of speech, discovering its paradoxical nature. Lively beat of dictionary, unexpected substitution of notions and interchange of bitterly re-interpreted quotations give her poetry profundity, and quite often, epigrammatical precision. Her images are rather capricious and elusive, at first sight even accidental; but this is deceptive accidention, which is only the other side of necessity"--Tomas Venclova, professor of Slavic Languages and Literature at Yale University and contributor to The New York Review of Books and The New Republic.
Download or read book Intergalactic Travels written by Alan Pelaez Lopez and published by Operating System - Kin(d)* Texts and Projects. This book was released on 2020-02-22 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Intergalactic Travels: poems from a fugitive alien is a poetry memoir that takes up the intersections of Indigeneity, Blackness, queerness and migration as it relates to U.S. federal immigration law. The book pushes the boundaries of an "undocumented immigrant narrative"via the poet's refusal to belong to United Statian society and the refusal of a structured poetics.In fact, the chaotic geographies of the manuscript (collages + photographs + emails + negative space) formulate theories of fugitivity that position the transAtlantic slave trade and Indigenous dispossession as root causes of undocumented immigration. In this refusal of national belonging and form, the book asks for a critical kinship that the law can never account for, and thus, Pelaez Lopez negotiates legal status for new imaginaries of care. As a whole, the manuscript asks: "what does it mean that a descendant of enslaved Africans becomes an illegal alien in the same continent that subjugated their ancestors to chattel slavery?" Furthermore, "can an Indigenous subject of this continent be considered 'illegal' in the continent of their ancestors?"
