This book was released on 2011-12 with total page 81 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: My Book of Urban Poetry showcases the different types of poems written by Brian Black Cowboy Montgomery. In his new book, the author has separated his poetry into three different sections. The first part, The Romantic Side of B, delivers some truly erotic prose. For the Hero Within Us features inspirational poems, while the final section, Welcome to the Dark Side, delves into Montgomery's dark and brooding verse. I credit my supportive and loving girlfriend, Latasha, and my dysfunctional family for providing me my inspiration for my poems, he says. Looks like I have a good, bad and ugly thing going on, but I like it because I want the readers to understand what they're reading and the meaning behind my pieces. For the good, the bad and the ugly, check out the symbolic and versatile verses that constitute the Black Cowboy's sweet and dark pieces.
Download or read book Urban Street Poetry written by L-Boogie and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2010-03-16 with total page 117 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sometimes in our lives, we suffer heartaches and pains. Sometimes we suffer them alone. The characters are real, and the events are true. The burdens these characters carry are heavy. Walk with me down this lonely road and know there is a way out of a negative situation. Hope, sacrifice, and love is what these characters need. Hope, sacrifice, and love is what these characters could have if they want it. I wanted a way out of my negative lifestyle, so I decided to put my experiences on paper rather than continue to live them on the streets. I pray this anthology of street poetry pierce the suffering heart, devour the lonely soul, and vanish our bad habits. Only then have I done what God has called me to do. May God continue to bless you always. May God continue to bless your families always. Please remember this, “Only by the grace of God these heavy burdens that we carry will be lifted.” Author’s e-mail address: [email protected], Author’s Website: www.lboogie.net

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the 2nd of my many editions of my poetry as I write to inform and entertain. It's just another collection of my best work as I noticed some of my poems are shorter than others which doesn't diminish their quality. Most of my poems come from everyday life magnified as I love to do the unexpected and "think outside the box." It also reflects my provocative nature as I'm not afraid to "go there." Like "My Book Of Urban Poetry Volume 1" I also pour my heart into this book as well. I also feel my poetry sits on its own genre as it's called "info-tainment." I'm hoping as well that this book will get me more notice than my last one, my dark, funny and erotic poetry have unique origins looking from the unique names of my poems. I enjoyed writing this book for my faithful readers as everyone was asking me "when's your next book coming out?." Well, now you know and enjoy this slice of humble pie with my special cream.

Book excerpt: From @wilderpoetry comes a heavily expanded revised edition of Nocturnal, a collection of poetry and beautifully illustrated black-and-white imagery inspired by darkened days and sleepless nights.

Ink stains, landscapes, dreamlike animals, blackened pages, and textured spreads create a multifaceted reading experience. And true to the moniker, these poems are linked by a motif of "the wild." Celebrating the art of self-love poetry with both word and image, Nocturnal will leave readers comforted, curious, and inspired to explore the world around them.

Book excerpt: Poetry. Asian American Studies. THE REFUSAL OF SUITORS draws on Penelope and her loom to engage the landscapes, wants, forms, and ultimately the repetitions and variations of contemporary urban life. Through varying styles, voices, and layouts, these poems move collectively with a sonic force, the "pure acoustics of declaratives," through "a night that begins / with our falling asleep, the wet paragraph that he aspirates," with a visionary amalgam of phenomenon and symbol. From long-lined, romantic odes to tight, pictorial meditations akin to classical Asian poetry from the jocular to the reposed to the amorous to the despondent these are poems that are never satisfied, that relish the "sweet chorea of the longest day."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this exquisite book, Alice Walker’s first new collection of poetry since 1991, are poems that reaffirm her as “one of the best American writers of today” (The Washington Post). The forces of nature and the strength of the human spirit inspire the poems in Absolute Trust in the Goodness of the Earth. Alice Walker opens us to feeling and understanding, with poems that cover a broad spectrum of emotions. With profound artistry, Walker searches for, discovers, and declares the fundamental beauty of existence, as she explores what it means to experience life fully, to learn from it, and to grow both as an individual and as part of a greater spiritual community. About Walker’s Horses Make a Landscape Look More Beautiful, America said, “In the tradition of Whitman, Walker sings, celebrates and agonizes over the ordinary vicissitudes that link and separate all of humankind,” and the same can be said about this astonishing new collection, Absolute Trust in the Goodness of the Earth.
Download or read book Roll Deep: Poems written by Major Jackson and published by W. W. Norton & Company. This book was released on 2015-08-03 with total page 83 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A whimsical and “devastatingly effective” (Washington Post) collection that captures the spirit of travel and pays homage to heritage. In his fourth collection, a breakthrough volume, Major Jackson appropriates the vernacular notion of “rolling deep” to capture the spirit of aesthetic travel that defines these forceful new poems and brazenly announces his steady accretion of literary and artistic influences, both formal and experimental—his “crew.” The confident and radiant poems in Roll Deep address a range of topics, most prominently human intimacy and war. And like his best work to date, these poems create new experiences with language owed to Jackson’s willingness to once again seek a rhythmic sound that expresses the unique realities of the twenty-first century with humor and understanding. Whether set in Nairobi, Madrid, or Greece, the poems are sensuously evocative and unapologetically with-it, in their effort to build community across borders of language and style. From Urban Renewal, “The Dadaab Suite”: I have come to Dadaab like an actor on a press release, unprepared for the drained faces of famine-fleeing refugees, my craft’s glamour dimmed by hundreds of infant graves, children whose lolling heads’ final drop landed on their mothers’ backs like soft stones. What beauty can I spell in this swelter of dust?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “In this book, Maisha Fisher invites us to pull up a chair and listen in as young people insert their own rhythms into school life. . . . But this book is not a simple celebration of student voice. It is an ethnographic account of the teaching and learning processes through which lived (or longed-for) experience was disciplined into verbal rhythms.” —From the Foreword by Anne Haas Dyson, University of Illinois-Urbana/Champaign, author of The Brothers and Sisters Learn to Write “Prepare to rethink the role of popular youth culture in the classroom. This work demonstrates some of the most respected theories of learning put into action through the roles and rules of young people's poetry. We leave this work alive and alert to ways that youth culture can transcend generations, everyday identities, and life disruptions.” —Shirley Brice Heath, Professor at Large, Brown University This dynamic book examines how literacy learning can be expanded and redefined using the medium of spoken word poetry. The author tells the story of a passionate Language Arts teacher and his work with The Power Writers, an after-school writing community of Latino and African-American students. Featuring rich portraits of literacy in action, this book introduces teaching practices for fostering peer support, generating new vocabulary, discussing issues of Standard American English, and using personal experiences as literary inspiration. Drawing from literature in both literacy research and cultural studies, this book: Provides a model for incorporating “open mic” formats and the public sharing of reading and writing in literacy classes with urban youth.Shows how teachers can approach teaching with profound respect for student cultures, languages, and life experiences.Offers a new way of talking about literacy with urban high school students, including new terminology generated by the teachers and students.Explores what it means for Language Arts teachers to be “practitioners of the craft.”
