Book excerpt: "From Pain to Poetic Justice: Reflections in Poetry" is a book filled with poems that are inspired from pain and hurt to instill justice in a poetic sense. Poetry that uplifts the down in spirit, preaches equality, and practices freedom of speech. From church, to black history to current events all make up the poems that reside in this book. Taking a stand using poetry rather than violence to express pain and anger is the method Carroll uses to be heard. In his work Carroll taps into the shoes of different people who are victims of domestic violence, being wrongfully judged in the church and many different areas and walks of life.

Book excerpt: Imagine being locked in your bathroom for 30 days. No control of the heat nor air, no windows, bathtub or any of the things you'd associate with a typical bathroom. All you have is your sink, the toilet, and a slab of concrete. On top of that slab is a "mattress" as thin as a ream of typing paper and just as hard. Now Imagine having a pen and a few scraps of paper that are actually old envelopes opened up. What would you do? Sleep, think, cry, laugh, YELL? Well, I did all those things. But I also wrote...Sentenced to 30 years in State Prison at the age of 19, for armed robbery and shooting a police officer, my life had taken a turn for the worst. Freedom had become a thing of the past, and controlled movement became the norm.It was during this dark comma (not period) in my life that I found the light that would illuminate my cell and free me long before I was released from prison. It was during this time that I found my voice and was granted the justice I longed for...Poetic Justice.The poems within this volume are of an early nature or shall I say during the juvenile years of my prison sentence. Poems of hurt and hope, pain and promise, love, and loss create somewhat of a journey for the reader to experience in real time. Although each is distinct and stands firmly on its own, collectively my poems tell the story of a seemingly lost soul attempting to find itself.

Book excerpt: “Want to be taken to another world, a time and place you have only dreamed of but never dared go? Justice will be your guide: looking into your soul, fifi nding your passion within, taking you into a dark and mysterious world, and screaming gotcha! Do not fear, witness the beauty which the darkness holds: sadness, hope, desire, a sea of emotions in every word. Let go and free your mind. Dance with Justice in the darkness and feel your passion.” ~A. Hults “Justice proves social media and technology are weak imitators against creative writing, and insists on prying the reader’s mind open with complicit care or, when necessary, a thought provoking, poetic battering ram. Hints of romantic bliss, inhumane punishment, and righting the wrongs of mankind’s foolishness are abundant and uplifting, yet happy endings are not guaranteed. The reader needs to spend less time attempting to understand the motivation and more on what wild ride this literary carnival barker will point toward next. Justice presents a beguiling canvas, demanding the individual reader decide how every story should end.” ~D. Smith “Turn the lights down low, get comfortable, and open the cover of Poetic Justice and be swept away into another time and place. Justice lifts you to the pinnacle of desire and leaves you shaking your head at the injustice around us. Dark and alluring, this book reaches into the fabric of your soul, and with biting nails pulls you into the ecstasy contained within.” ~J. Bouyat

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Black Nature is the first anthology to focus on nature writing by African American poets, a genre that until now has not commonly been counted as one in which African American poets have participated. Black poets have a long tradition of incorporating treatments of the natural world into their work, but it is often read as political, historical, or protest poetry--anything but nature poetry. This is particularly true when the definition of what constitutes nature writing is limited to work about the pastoral or the wild. Camille T. Dungy has selected 180 poems from 93 poets that provide unique perspectives on American social and literary history to broaden our concept of nature poetry and African American poetics. This collection features major writers such as Phillis Wheatley, Rita Dove, Yusef Komunyakaa, Gwendolyn Brooks, Sterling Brown, Robert Hayden, Wanda Coleman, Natasha Trethewey, and Melvin B. Tolson as well as newer talents such as Douglas Kearney, Major Jackson, and Janice Harrington. Included are poets writing out of slavery, Reconstruction, the Harlem Renaissance, the Black Arts Movement, and late twentieth- and early twenty-first-century African American poetic movements. Black Nature brings to the fore a neglected and vital means of considering poetry by African Americans and nature-related poetry as a whole. A Friends Fund Publication.

Book excerpt: Laird of a small estate, Will Alexander of Menstrie, poet and tutor, was a man of modest ambitions. But when James VI learned of his poetic genius, the king had other plans for him. In 1603, when James VI of Scotland became James I of England, he summoned Will to London and commanded him to translate the Psalms for the new royal version of the Bible in English - which remains the definitive edition to this day. At the English court, Will Alexander consorted with the most famous poets of the age including Shakespeare and Jonson. By the time he died, the humble Scottish laird had become Earl of Stirling, Viscount of Canada, Governor of Nova Scotia and Secretary of State for Scotland. Laced with intrigue and absorbing historical detail, Nigel Tranter charts the extraordinary rise of William Alexander of Menstrie.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Literature reveals the intense efforts of moral imagination required to articulate what justice is and how it might be satisfied. Examining a wide variety of texts including Shakespeare's plays, Gilbert and Sullivan's operas, and modernist poetics, Poetic Justice and Legal Fictions explores how literary laws and values illuminate and challenge the jurisdiction of justice and the law. Jonathan Kertzer examines how justice is articulated by its command of, or submission to, time, nature, singularity, truth, transcendence and sacrifice, marking the distance between the promise of justice to satisfy our moral and sociable needs and its failure to do so. Poetic Justice and Legal Fictions will be invaluable reading for scholars of the law within literature and amongst modernist and twentieth century literature specialists.

Book excerpt: These pages hold a lifetime of lessons learned about love, life and relationships. Poetic Justice is not a typical book designed for reading from beginning to end but as individual pages that beckon your soul at a particular moment in time. Chapters are organized by topic, not chronologically. Like a diary entry, each poem represents my innermost insights and feelings during a moment in time. Each entry is anonymous because lessons live on unlike some relationships. I didnt write these poems, they wrote me. When I was overwhelmed with emotion and didnt think anyone could hear me or understand, the words poured through me onto the pages . . . sometimes between the blinding tears of heartbreak and betrayal, sometimes fueled by liquid courage on bar napkins, sometimes in the depths of depression and sometimes by the light of love. Whether youre inspired by music, dance, painting or prose, express yourself. Everyone has a story someone in the world needs to hear . . . for inspiration, insight or to know theyre not alone. This is part of my story. Thank you for listening.

Book excerpt: A riveting debut thriller by Andrea J. Johnson, and the first in the VICTORIA JUSTICE series. Twenty-five year old Victoria Justice has never really gotten over a near drowning at the hands of a high school bully, but has attempted to build her confidence and career as a court stenographer under the mentorship of The Honorable Frederica Scott Wannamaker, the county's first African-American Superior Court judge. But when her old nemesis appears on the court docket, Victoria's carefully crafted world implodes—evidence goes missing, a potential mistrial abounds, and the judge winds up drowned in the courthouse bathroom. Victoria realizes her transcript of the proceedings unlocks everyone's secrets...including the murderer's. Plagued with guilt for failing to protect her mentor, Victoria teams up with Ashton North, the handsome state trooper accused of mishandling trial evidence, and starts to untangle the conspiracy surrounding the case. Meanwhile, the deputy attorney general hangs himself during the Post-Election Festival. Everyone is quick to accept his suicide note as a sign of guilt, but Victoria is convinced the truth behind her mentor's death lies in the trial transcript. Can she suppress her fears long enough to crack the code, find her voice, and avoid the crosshairs of the killer?

Book excerpt: The astonishing, powerful debut by the winner of a 2016 Whiting Writers' Award WHEREAS her birth signaled the responsibility as mother to teach what it is to be Lakota therein the question: What did I know about being Lakota? Signaled panic, blood rush my embarrassment. What did I know of our language but pieces? Would I teach her to be pieces? Until a friend comforted, Don’t worry, you and your daughter will learn together. Today she stood sunlight on her shoulders lean and straight to share a song in Diné, her father’s language. To sing she motions simultaneously with her hands; I watch her be in multiple musics. —from “WHEREAS Statements” WHEREAS confronts the coercive language of the United States government in its responses, treaties, and apologies to Native American peoples and tribes, and reflects that language in its officiousness and duplicity back on its perpetrators. Through a virtuosic array of short lyrics, prose poems, longer narrative sequences, resolutions, and disclaimers, Layli Long Soldier has created a brilliantly innovative text to examine histories, landscapes, her own writing, and her predicament inside national affiliations. “I am,” she writes, “a citizen of the United States and an enrolled member of the Oglala Sioux Tribe, meaning I am a citizen of the Oglala Lakota Nation—and in this dual citizenship I must work, I must eat, I must art, I must mother, I must friend, I must listen, I must observe, constantly I must live.” This strident, plaintive book introduces a major new voice in contemporary literature.

Book excerpt: Through my pen is a series of poems that have been written through one's life. It specifies different turmoils and emotions we may face at different times. In many ways people do not understand the chaos in our minds so instead they just talk. This anthology voices those same battles we face from a personal perspective so that others can truly understand our feeling and emotions. It is not always easy to talk about our pain and struggle but through words today we can heal and learn in order to be better tomorrow. We all face different struggles but sometimes they are similar, understanding that another person overcame them helps us to endure. This book is definitely part one of what is to come in order to help overcome life's struggles together.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poetic Justice Douglas Pennington is a highly-trained military assassin. Although his kill rate is the highest ever recorded, it is his cold, unfeeling approach to his missions that catches the eye of a secret group known as “The Council” who are on a mission to exact justice where the legal and judicial systems have failed. They recruit Pennington for the sole purpose of assassinating specific people they have targeted. Pennington executes his missions with precision and is one of the world’s most lethal men—that is, until he meets Dr. Sherri Fergusson. Pennington’s chance meeting with Fergusson will change the course of both their lives as he learns too late that The Council takes no prisoners and will share their warrior commodity with no one. Deception, confinement, betrayal, revenge, and love all combine to create a journey of deadly unpredictability as Douglas Pennington and The Council collide, each seeking out their own type of justice. “Poetic Justice is a fun and fast-paced read. The author does an excellent job setting the scene and describing characters, and with plenty of twists and turns in the story, you’ll have a hard time putting this book down!” Christina Guthrie, Dog Ear Publishing Editor

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poetic Justice is the first anthology of contemporary Moroccan poetry in English. The work is primarily composed of poets who began writing after Moroccan independence in 1956 and includes work written in Moroccan Arabic (darija), classical Arabic, French, and Tamazight. Why Poetic Justice? Moroccan poetry (and especially zajal, oral poetry now written in Moroccan Arabic) is often published in newspapers and journals and is thus a vibrant form of social commentary; what’s more, there is a law, a justice, in the aesthetic act that speaks back to the law of the land. Poetic Justice because literature has the power to shape the cultural and moral imagination in profound and just ways. Reading this oeuvre from independence until the new millennium and beyond, it is clear that what poet Driss Mesnaoui calls the “letters of time” have long been in the hands of Moroccan poets, as they write their ethics, their aesthetics, as well as their gendered and political lives into poetic being.
