Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There's a pandemic, and we are all at war. With the invisible virus; with our governments; and, for some, with ourselves. Isolation is like no man's land. A country that belongs to no one, yet has managed to trap everyone inside its borders. The lull that we may feel here is deceptive -- there is always danger lurking. Be it the virus waiting to infect us as soon as we step outside the front door to go for a walk. Be it the economy slowly crashing around us while we stretch out and work in our pyjamas. Our new routine is filled with paradox. Peace and rage. Inspiration and desperation. Connected isolation. Here are twelve poems that came to me, both to save me and to drown me during the first three weeks of lockdown. May they cheer you up, enrage you, inspire you and console you.

Book excerpt: In this stunning collection of new poems, Mary Oliver returns to the imagery that has defined her life’s work, describing with wonder both the everyday and the unaffected beauty of nature. Herons, sparrows, owls, and kingfishers flit across the page in meditations on love, artistry, and impermanence. Whether considering a bird’s nest, the seeming patience of oak trees, or the artworks of Franz Marc, Oliver reminds us of the transformative power of attention and how much can be contained within the smallest moments. At its heart, Blue Horses asks what it means to truly belong to this world, to live in it attuned to all its changes. Humorous, gentle, and always honest, Oliver is a visionary of the natural world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The alarm and the horror that characterized the years 2020 and 2021 are fading fast, gone, or about to go, while the gentle footsteps of the Guardian spirit can be heard yonder. Images of spring, sunlight, blazing candles, brilliant flowers, and moonlit nights are taking center stage in our minds. There is hope for a better life, and a healthy situation in the world in 2022 as people start to gather on the streets, hugging and kissing; their mask-less faces display laughter, giggles, and beauty. In incredible abundance, life has come or is soon coming back, rushing in, bending down to pick up its old cloth. This anthology, Coming Out of Isolation: Poems on Resilience, Triumph & Hope, features poems written by poets after their endless days in lockdown and self-isolation. The poems herein express the poets' feelings and thoughts in a new way with a healing tonal quality, brighter and pleasant imageries, and new lively metaphors.

Book excerpt: To live is to go with the rhythm, but when loneliness accompanies us, we fall in love with joy, hope, sorrow, and death. We defy our nature. I wrote these twenty-four poems for the past twenty-four days since the lock down of our county due to COVID-19 pandemic. I stayed at my room. No work for me to do. This loneliness within me is killing me unless I put them into paper through my pen and tears and smiles and despair. But at those moments, I began appreciating the essence of loneliness - how powerful to self-actualize and see millions of perspectives.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The greatest works in history have all been built from a sense of isolation. It is within these moments that the author's truth finds its way from pen to paper. Conference of the Isolated attempts to reopen a dialogue, one that is missing from today's climate. A life lived must be worth living, and as we struggled together through these past few years, it became apparent that isolation would be at the forefront of our very existence, forced in some cases, voluntary in others. Conference of the Isolated not only tackles the loneliness of this period but dwells on the past as it relates to the great works of our time, much of which has never seen the light of day. Along the way, recollections of the past, remembrances of those we lost, and a hope for a better tomorrow all reign in word play.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “When an author’s unmitigated brilliance shows up on every page, it’s tempting to skip a description and just say, Read this! Such is the case with this breathlessly powerful, deceptively breezy book of poetry.” —Booklist, Starred Review In his much-anticipated follow-up to The Crown Ain't Worth Much, poet, essayist, biographer, and music critic Hanif Abdurraqib has written a book of poems about how one rebuilds oneself after a heartbreak, the kind that renders them a different version of themselves than the one they knew. It's a book about a mother's death, and admitting that Michael Jordan pushed off, about forgiveness, and how none of the author's black friends wanted to listen to "Don't Stop Believin'." It's about wrestling with histories, personal and shared. Abdurraqib uses touchstones from the world outside—from Marvin Gaye to Nikola Tesla to his neighbor's dogs—to create a mirror, inside of which every angle presents a new possibility.

Book excerpt: This tribute to the poets was born in March 2020, during the beginning weeks of California's stay-at-home orders for the COVID-19 pandemic. Poets Underground, a community of poets who perform weekly at Amplified Ale Works Acid Vault room in San Diego, continued to meet online, expressing their raw emotions and hardships in lockdown. The intense missing of in-person connections led to the coining of the catch phrase and title of this anthology. Divided into five sections, each dealing with different phases of the challenges the pandemic created, this volume features 134 poems from 72 poets. With shifts in the political and the emotional since April, these poems reflect only the first month of lockdown, and life in the world post-COVID-19.

"The brutality of life 'on the wrong side of the river' is brilliantly counterpointed by the elegance of lyrical diction and unforgettable imagery." -- Larry Thomas, former Poet Laureate of Texas and author, Where Skulls Speak Wind

Todos en algún momento vivimos o atravesamos un duelo. El amor es la fuerza más grande y poderosa que es capaz de aliviarnos. En este poemario bilingüe (Español e Inglés) se entrelazan estos conceptos. Así como un ciclo de vida: nacer, crecer, vivir y morir. Se tocan dos polos opuestos: 1- El nacimiento de un bebé desde los sentimientos y emociones de la madre al saberse embarazada. 2. El sufrimiento, agonía, desesperación y tristeza de ver poco a poco partir a un ser querido hacia la muerte. Giving birth is a something beautiful. Isolation can be excruciating. We all experience or go through grief at some point of our lives. Love is the greatest and most powerful force that is able of giving us relief. In this bilingual poetry book (Spanish and English), these concepts are intertwined. As well as a life cycle: being born, growing, living, and dying. Two opposite poles are touched: 1- The birth of a baby from the mother's feelings and emotions when she finds out she is pregnant. 2. The suffering, agony, desperation and sadness of seeing a loved one slowly go to death.

Book excerpt: "Harryette Mullen is a magician of words, phrases, and songs . . . No voice in contemporary poetry is quite as original, cosmopolitan, witty, and tragic." —Susan Stewart, citation for the Academy of American Poets Fellowship Urban tumbleweed, some people call it, discarded plastic bag we see in every city blown down the street with vagrant wind. —from Urban Tumbleweed Urban Tumbleweed is the poet Harryette Mullen's exploration of spaces where the city and the natural world collide. Written out of a daily practice of walking, Mullen's stanzas adapt the traditional Japanese tanka, a poetic form suited for recording fleeting impressions, describing environmental transitions, and contemplating the human being's place in the natural world. But, as she writes in her preface, "What is natural about being human? What to make of a city dweller taking a ‘nature walk' in a public park while listening to a podcast with ear-bud headphones?"

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Mesmerizing, magical, deeply moving.” —Elif Shafak Expanding on the popular podcast of the same name from On Being Studios, Poetry Unbound offers immersive reflections on fifty powerful poems. In the tumult of our contemporary moment, poetry has emerged as an inviting, consoling outlet with a unique power to move and connect us, to inspire fury, tears, joy, laughter, and surprise. This generous anthology pairs fifty illuminating poems with poet and podcast host Pádraig Ó Tuama’s appealing, unhurried reflections. With keen insight and warm personal anecdotes, Ó Tuama considers each poem’s artistry and explores how its meaning can reach into our own lives. Focusing mainly on poets writing today, Ó Tuama engages with a diverse array of voices that includes Ada Limón, Ilya Kaminsky, Margaret Atwood, Ocean Vuong, Layli Long Soldier, and Reginald Dwayne Betts. Natasha Trethewey meditates on miscegenation and Mississippi; Raymond Antrobus makes poetry out of the questions shot at him by an immigration officer; Martín Espada mourns his father; Marie Howe remembers and blesses her mother’s body; Aimee Nezhukumatathil offers comfort to her child-self. Through these wide-ranging poems, Ó Tuama guides us on an inspiring journey to reckon with self-acceptance, history, independence, parenthood, identity, joy, and resilience. For anyone who has wanted to try their hand at a conversation with poetry but doesn’t know where to start, Poetry Unbound presents a window through which to celebrate the art of being alive.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lorine Niedecker (1903–70) was a poet of extraordinary talent whose life and work were long enveloped in obscurity. After her death in 1970, poet Basil Bunting wrote that she was “the most interesting woman poet America has yet produced . . . only beginning to be appreciated when she died.” Her poverty and arduous family life, the isolated home in Wisconsin that provided rich imagery for her work, and her unusual acquaintances have all contributed to Niedecker’s enigmatic reputation. Margot Peters brings Lorine Niedecker’s life out of the shadows in this first full biography of the poet. She depicts Niedecker’s watery world on Blackhawk Island (near Fort Atkinson, Wisconsin), where she was born and spent most of her life. A brief college career cut short by family obligations and an equally brief marriage were followed in 1931 by the start of a life-changing correspondence and complicated thirty-five-year friendship with modernist poet Louis Zukofsky, who connected Niedecker to a literary lifeline of distant poets and magazines. Supporting herself by turns as a hospital scrubwoman and proofreader for a dairy journal, Niedecker made a late marriage to an industrial painter, which gave her time to write and publish her work in the final decades of her life. During her lifetime, Niedecker’s poetry was praised by a relatively small literary circle, including Zukofsky, William Carlos Williams, Robert Creeley, Denise Levetov, and Allen Ginsberg. Since her death much more of her surviving writings have been published, including a comprehensive edition of collected works and two volumes of correspondence. Through Margot Peters’s compelling biography, readers will discover Lorine Niedecker as a poet of spare and brilliant verse and a woman whose talent and grit carried her through periods of desperation and despair.
