Book excerpt: I wake to the saddest sunrise. My bed has become a tomb. I rise with hope thin as a cobweb, Desperate to hear your voice, Desperate to hold your hand. Is our love real? There is no floor below me. Catch me, I am falling. Kirk Olson has a talent for lyrically seeing through the darkness to the light on the other side where everyone is encouraged to live and chase their dreams. In his third collection of poetry, Olson vividly explores the theme of death: death of relationships, his mother, dreams, motivation, accidents, addiction, and much more. Olson shares unique poems that reflect on diverse subjects that include a dark knight whose soul is always free, a Mother Earth that humanity continues to deface, guitar strings that scream postulation, subconscious wanderings, and the death of a romance that was never meant to be. Poet of Death offers candid insight into one man’s life as he poetically explores the theme of dying within an open platform that inspires reflection for anyone seeking to view life in a different way.
Download or read book Life in Poetry written by Colin Kirk and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2014-09-11 with total page 518 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These poems, written from 1955 to 2014, are a reflection on the period by someone who lived through it and, of course, aged in the process. Various world tragedies knocked the poetry out of him a time or two. He says: Somewhere between 1955 and 2000 humanity took a further seriously wrong turning. The twenty-fi rst century started in farce that gave unlimited power to people intent on mass murder. We let it happen. Poetry was once the great harbinger of understanding and poets were once listened to because they had something important to say.

Book Synopsis We... a Spirit Seeking Harmony for a World That's Out of Sync by : Heather J. Kirk
Download or read book We... a Spirit Seeking Harmony for a World That's Out of Sync written by Heather J. Kirk and published by Heather J. Kirk. This book was released on 2012 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In We ... a spirit seeking harmony for a world that's out of sync, she takes the reader on a faith journey modeled after that of the prophet Isaiah, yet sets it in the absolute present. Tears flow through her tellings of pain so personal we think they are our own. And perhaps they are. But "We" never leaves us alone, offering possibilities in the communion of family, friends and a God that burns us with His healing fire. Even ‘non-poetry readers’ will find the text in “We” as natural and readable as prose, beautiful, even while the poems reveal the tragedies that befall us in this world. With Ms. Kirk’s assistance, we travel from grief and pain to hope and purpose. Through the chapter headings ‘out of sync’, ‘who will go?’, ‘coal to my lips’, ‘send me’, and ‘go,’ she reminds us that no matter what we have lived through, we are never so broken that we cannot go and minister to another in need. When I was reading ‘We’, I wanted to gobble it up-to swallow the content whole, without chewing. At the same time I wanted to touch and feel every word. I really had to force myself to go slow. Your book did everything a great book should. It made me ache, it made me smile. It made me think, and wonder. Then, like a REALLY GREAT BOOK, it made me want to read it again, which I did. It also made me anxious to share it with my friends. -Cheri Oehler Terman, Social Worker - AmericaCorp VISTA - Flood Recovery

Download or read book Moral Compass written by Kirk C. Olson and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2010-04 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The forty poems in this collection were originally written as heavy metal song lyrics. The selections encompass a variety of deeply personal themes such as love, alcoholism, fantasy and religion. The poems are often dark in nature, expressing author Kirk C. Olson's emotions, such as sadness, rage, affection and fear. The poems purposely speak to those who need to make choices. Sobriety may be one of those choices as in the case of the poem "The Liquid Truth" I was breaking hearts / While emptying bottles / Too drunk to know / I was emptying my heart / And should have been breaking bottles/ Olson's Moral Compass addresses many of life's philosophical questions and the choices people make within their lifetime. This poetry collection reveals how one experiences life within extremes and there are those who have been to the extreme ends of those experiences.

Download or read book No Ordinary Game written by Kirk Westphal and published by Down East Books. This book was released on 2015-06-01 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A young boy nearly paralyzed in a car accident runs for the first time in his life during a baseball game. A refugee family from despoiled East Africa plays soccer in my suburban backyard on Thanksgiving Day. A group of college boys is challenged to a game of basketball against the women’s varsity team in an empty gym, then another on a tough inner city court. I hit the first homerun of my life when I am thirty-three years old. These are Ordinary Games. This is a book of pure inspiration. Many of the sporting world’s most profound achievements and displays of humanity are never recorded. They happen on sandlots, asphalt, and backyards. Stories of well-known athletes and teams abound in popular literature – what is missing is an exaltation of the moments that can happen to any of the rest of us - and do. Ordinary Games is the grandstand for everyday miracles. This is an inspirational book that shows how any one of us can transcend possibility or lighten life’s burdens simply by picking up a ball. It is a collection of poignant memoirs of games played without grandstands. Some of the stories relive everyday miracles, while others find the souls of players ascending into the spirits of the games they play. They tell of the glory, despair, and humanity that can be found any afternoon or evening, at any playground, gym, or empty field. The tone is frequently humorous, but the tenor is deeply and genuinely human. While the primary themes involve overcoming impossible odds, secondary themes focus on overcoming common misperceptions. Throughout the narrative, these pieces explore racial and gender divides (including a history of violent separatism) with subtlety, grace, realization, respect, and the common language of competition. The vantage point is wholly familiar, yet new and fresh. My voice is that of a mediocre athlete who can hold his own (but to save his life cannot run fast), and whose sensibilities ignite when the game is on. This familiarity and intensity let readers watch and play at the same time, and hardly notice the difference. Something in each chapter has happened to them, too, and is worth remembering.

Download or read book Saint X written by Kirk Nesset and published by Stephen F. Austin University Press. This book was released on 2012 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Kirk Nesset's Saint X chronicles the muted joy and despair of a millennial age, charting love's ills and the grind of mortality. His figures are bizarre but familiar: people born under punches, shaken awake by rattles and flares, latter-day pilgrims who stare at the statue that stares at America; people for whom disobedience is still a first duty, and death but a question of style. Wearing bandages rather than smiles, they're misshapen champions downed by self-bludgeons, perversely on foot while the saddled horse follows--and yet in each case, in each poem, they are honored if not saved by nuanced reflection, measured perception, and the pleasures of song."--Books.google.

Book Synopsis Ancient Greek Lists by : Athena Kirk
Download or read book Ancient Greek Lists written by Athena Kirk and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2023-03-30 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ancient Greek Lists brings together catalogic texts from a variety of genres, arguing that the list form was the ancient mode of expressing value through text. Ranging from Homer's Catalogue of Ships through Attic comedy and Hellenistic poetry to temple inventories, the book draws connections among texts seldom juxtaposed, examining the ways in which lists can stand in for objects, create value, act as methods of control, and even approximate the infinite. Athena Kirk analyzes how lists come to stand as a genre in their own right, shedding light on both under-studied and well-known sources to engage scholars and students of Classical literature, ancient history, and ancient languages.
