With the dizzying, up in the air, Can you cook, a vehicle boiling with me inside it to viewing a remembrance of years past in the Italian village surrounded by the big city where I grew up in They were there. I can vision it today and odors that leave with me as I walked through the door.

Book excerpt: Icon of environmental consciousness, independent living, and social justice, Henry David Thoreau has probably generated more poems about him than any other secular individual.

A whole library of books has been written about Thoreau, but maybe poetry best explains why his legacy is both enduring and endearing.
Book Synopsis Echo of the Park by : Romina E. Freschi
Download or read book Echo of the Park written by Romina E. Freschi and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poetry. Latinx Studies. Romina Freschi's ECHO OF THE PARK is a philosophical long poem that surveys made spaces, both elevated and debased. In dialogue with First Dream by Sor Juana In�s de la Cruz, Freschi captures fleeting states of grace, such as "ecstasy" and "bliss," and the ensuing gravitational pull of urban life's "imperfect terrain." All urban spaces are interior and exterior, private and public, confining and freeing. Ultimately the park, and the "parkified" speech of the poem, are sites of mourning. Can a former site of political violence be converted into a public green space? Jeannine Marie Pitas's nuanced translation presents Romina Freschi as one of the most singular and startling voices in contemporary Argentine poetry. "Romina Freschi's ECHO OF THE PARK explores dualities of capture and flight. Held by power, routine, poison, cultivation, gravity's many forms? Her language honors ecstatic break through, a feathered bird named Sor Juana, an interspecies heart, introspective focus, and passage to deep grief, and altogether punctuates turbulence with a rare calm...Read Romina Freschi's poetry: like her work as a publisher, professor, and instigator of cultural conversation, it startles us with vulnerable yet durable language. Be a cloud. A shadow-casting amorphous volume in flight for a short time. Be an ant. A ghost."�Deborah Meadows "Romina Freschi's ECHO OF THE PARK is one long poem that lets the reader chose whether to wander through the pages or rush from one short line to the next as it moves from the mystical dream world of Sor Juana to fallen Eden of the present, from the contemporary to the eternal, from speech to silence, from the smell of fallen, rotting avocados to the scent of wet cement, as effortlessly as a small finch flits through the sky. In this fluid, masterful translation by Jeannine Pitas, ECHO OF THE PARK is a book to read in one sitting, then read again�slowly savoring each line."�Jesse Lee Kercheval "The poems of Romina Freschi are a welcome addition to American poetry, where we have a tendency to be isolationist by default. This potent voice from Buenos Aires employs vivid imagery and fierce intellect and sprays candlelight into the cave of what it means to be human, lost between realms, where memory takes many forms�an impossible road, a small basket, a chute we slide down�none of them satisfying. But Freschi's poetry itself engages the mind and ear."�Jeffrey Mcdaniel "Tracing the language of paradise, Romina Freschi's ECHO OF THE PARK, in Jeannine Marie Pitas' brilliant, searing translation, explores a paradise lost, one never-had, in which the poem traverses various registers of pastoral and urban life and asks the reader to 'inhabit then / imperfect terrain.' Through negation�'There is no nature / in the park'�and accumulation alike, this book explores impermanence in its most entropic and lasting forms, leaving its mark on terrain that pushes through the literary and into its liminal outskirts, settling somewhere between 'the dream and its scar.'"�Alexis Almeida

Book Synopsis Sadhguru, More Than a Life by : Arundhathi Subramaniam
Download or read book Sadhguru, More Than a Life written by Arundhathi Subramaniam and published by Penguin Books India. This book was released on 2010 with total page 250 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ‘The thirst to be boundless is not created by you; it is just life longing for itself.’ —Sadhguru This is the extraordinary story of Sadhguru—a young agnostic who turned yogi, a wild motorcyclist who turned mystic, a sceptic who turned spiritual guide. Pulsating with his razor-sharp intelligence, bracing wit and modern-day vocabulary, the book empowers you to explore your spiritual self and could well change your life. It seeks to re-create the life journey of a man who combines rationality with mysticism, irreverence with compassion, ancient wisdom with a provocatively contemporary outlook and a deep knowledge of the self with a contagious love of life. Described as ‘a profound mystic, visionary humanitarian and prominent spiritual leader of our times', he is equally at home in a satsangh in rural Tamil Nadu as at the World Economic Forum in Davos. In his early years, Jaggi Vasudev (or Sadhguru as he is now known) was a chronic truant, a boisterous prankster, and later a lover of motorbikes and fast cars. It is evident that the same urgency, passion and vitality echo in his spiritual pursuits to this day, from his creation of the historic Dhyanalinga—the mission of three lifetimes—to his approach as a guru. In Sadhguru's view, faith and reason, spirituality and science, the sacred and the material, cannot be divided into easy binaries. He sees people as ‘spiritual beings dabbling with the material rather than the reverse’, and liberation as the fundamental longing in every form of life. Truth for him is a living experience instead of a destination, a conclusion, or a matter of metaphysical speculation. The possibility of self-realization, he strongly believes, is available to all. Drawing upon extended conversations with Sadhguru, interviews with Isha colleagues and fellow meditators, poet Arundhathi Subramaniam presents an evocative portrait of a contemporary mystic and guru—a man who seems to pack the intensity and adventure of several lifetimes into a single one.
Book Synopsis Echoes and Shadows by : Douglas Wilson
Download or read book Echoes and Shadows written by Douglas Wilson and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2019-09-03 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Echoes & Shadows is a collection of poetry that was written over the course of the past half century. This collection of poetry began while I was still a youth growing up in a small rural Northern Michigan town. The collection was continued through my college days at Central Michigan University, extending through “learning years”, finishing with my coming of age as a writer and as a person. In many ways, Echoes & Shadows is a life history. It chronicles the events of my life and it speaks of the people and places that have most impacted my life. The poetry collection is my thoughts, feelings, philosophies, and memories. Echoes & Shadows is dedicated to the family, friends and women I have loved who so often have touched my life and inspired this collection of poetry. My sincerest thank you to Lisa, Tracy and Carlie Jo for their time and technical assistance in compiling these poems. Their efforts were a big factor in getting Echoes and Shadows ready for publishing.
Download or read book Life on Mars written by Tracy K. Smith and published by Graywolf Press. This book was released on 2017-01-10 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the 2012 Pulitzer Prize * Poet Laureate of the United States * * A New York Times Notable Book of 2011 and New York Times Book Review Editors' Choice * * A New Yorker, Library Journal and Publishers Weekly Best Book of the Year * New poetry by the award-winning poet Tracy K. Smith, whose "lyric brilliance and political impulses never falter" (Publishers Weekly, starred review) You lie there kicking like a baby, waiting for God himself To lift you past the rungs of your crib. What Would your life say if it could talk? —from "No Fly Zone" With allusions to David Bowie and interplanetary travel, Life on Mars imagines a soundtrack for the universe to accompany the discoveries, failures, and oddities of human existence. In these brilliant new poems, Tracy K. Smith envisions a sci-fi future sucked clean of any real dangers, contemplates the dark matter that keeps people both close and distant, and revisits the kitschy concepts like "love" and "illness" now relegated to the Museum of Obsolescence. These poems reveal the realities of life lived here, on the ground, where a daughter is imprisoned in the basement by her own father, where celebrities and pop stars walk among us, and where the poet herself loses her father, one of the engineers who worked on the Hubble Space Telescope. With this remarkable third collection, Smith establishes herself among the best poets of her generation.
Book Synopsis The Echo Chamber by : Michael Bazzett
Download or read book The Echo Chamber written by Michael Bazzett and published by Milkweed Editions. This book was released on 2021-10-09 with total page 83 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Michael Bazzett, poet and translator of The Popol Vuh, a collection that explores the myth of Echo and Narcissus, offering a reboot, a remix, a reimagining. “Narcissus was never one to see himself // in moving water. // He liked his image / still.” In The Echo Chamber, myth is refracted into our current moment. A time traveler teaches a needleworker the pleasures of social media gratification. A man goes looking for his face and is first offered a latex mask. A book reveals eerie transmutations of a simple story. And the myth itself is retold, probing its most provocative qualities—how reflective waters enable self-absorption, the tragic rightness of Echo and Narcissus as a couple. The Echo Chamber examines our endlessly self-referential age of selfies and televised wars and manufactured celebrity, gazing lingeringly into the many kinds of damage it produces, and the truths obscured beneath its polished surface. In the process, Bazzett cements his status as one of our great poetic fools—the comedian who delivers uncomfortable silence, who sheds layers of disguises to reveal light underneath, who smuggles wisdom within “rage-mothered laughter.” Late-stage capitalism, history, death itself: all are subject to his wry, tender gaze. By turns searing, compassionate, and darkly humorous, The Echo Chamber creates an echo through time, holding up the broken mirror of myth to our present-day selves.
Download or read book Echoes written by Robert Creeley and published by New Directions Publishing. This book was released on 1994 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his new collection of poems, Robert Creeley continues to explore the limits and resonances, public and personal, of age. Indeed, the title itself, Echoes, recurs throughout his poetry of the last two decades. Thus "Sonnets" speaks out against the waste of human violence and dogmatism ("Come round again the banal/belligerence almost a/flatulent echo of times"), while the book's closing sequence, "Roman Sketchbook", contemplates with wit and affection the measure of one's literal body in echoing time and place. Creeley as ever articulates the givens of life, its daily fact and possibility, with careful, concise invention. What wind's echo, uplifted spirit? Archaic feelings flood the body. Ah! accomplished.

Download or read book Echoes I written by Ruth Stefano and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2019-03-07 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the tender age of ninety, my dearest wish has been to publish my remaining poems before I depart this world, and so I register my name on the list of published poets, thus avoiding my life’s work from disappearing in the midst of time. My grandmother on my father’s side wrote poetry, so I guess I inherited from her this wonderful gift. Unfortunately, she didn’t publish her work so when she died, her poems died with her. Sadly, I didn’t get the chance or opportunity to read any of her work. What a loss! So, dear reader, I trust you will enjoy the words of my heart, mind, and soul—happy reading!
