Download or read book In the Panhandle written by Reagan Upshaw and published by Kelsay Books. This book was released on 2023-07-21 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These poems read as though they were written by the love child of the Brothers Grimm and my high school football coach. There's an ogre, a goose-girl, a prince, a woodsman, and bloody knights errant, to be sure, but there's also a voice throughout that urges us to suck it up, shake it off, play with pain. It's still the Middle Ages, folks-angry lovers, drunk drivers who missed the curve, philosophical cattle ranchers abound in a world full of so much danger and beauty that we need a troubadour to wander through it with us, to organize what we see and help us understand. What's that twang, you say? Why, it's Reagan Upshaw over there on the haymow, tuning his lute. -David Kirby Out of the alembic of a childhood in the arid landscape of north Texas, and from a mix of pained memories, fairy and folktale twists, wry observations, and a lifetime steeped in art, Reagan Upshaw's In the Panhandle distills a poetry with a Larkin-like astringency: smooth and musical over the tongue, but with the dry tang of truth. -Maryann Corbett In the Panhandle is an engaging, intelligent, and wide-ranging book. You'll find poems about early Texas history, fairy tales, small town Vermont, the New York literary scene, modern love, saints, and high school football players. Upshaw has long been recognized for his candid and insightful reviews of artists and books. With In the Panhandle, he shows his worth as an accomplished, versatile poet as well. -Richard Cole

Reachable only by boat, Dog Island provides a quiet respite where Miami poet-artist Laurence Donovan contemplates the sea, sand, and sky and transforms them into words and etchings. Donald Justice, in his foreword, calls Donovan "doubly gifted" in both his poetry and his art. This volume presents both, the latter in fifteen of his etchings. He was also known for his linocuts, represented here by the small scorpion at the end of the book.

Book Synopsis One Thousand Sheets of Rice Paper by : Kevin Cantwell
Download or read book One Thousand Sheets of Rice Paper written by Kevin Cantwell and published by . This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This third collection of Cantwell's poetry is characterized less by formalism than by the lyric poem as an exploration of the process of making art. The title poem recounts an anecdote about the mid-century painter Robert Motherwell and the nature of the real, and the opening poem returns to the familiar landscape of the Florida Panhandle where the speaker crosses unmarked rivers at night while getting disoriented, then stymied, by waters that cannot be crossed. Intimate poems from family life give pointed texture to the more meditative encounters within the paragraphing of longer stanzas. An exchange between brothers who cannot afford to bury their mother is overheard while they toy with a gull by throwing bits of shell in the air as if it were bread. A longer poem in five sections experiments with the space a poem establishes on the page and which pressures the kind of poem each of its sections make; "You can turn your life around," that poem asserts, "but not the ship of night."

Book Synopsis God Speaks to Me in Silence by : Janet Safford Cline
Download or read book God Speaks to Me in Silence written by Janet Safford Cline and published by Inspiring Voices. This book was released on 2013-10-17 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Where does poetry come from? For Janet Safford Cline, her poetry comes from a lifetime of loving words and putting them together to express her faith in Jesus Christ. A lifelong Christian, in her inspiring poetry collection, God Speaks to Me in Silence, she imagines biblical scenes and stories in the poems Shepherds, Temptations, and Why? She gently pokes fun at Sundays-only Christians in Dear Bishop. Janet lived many years in the Texas Panhandle and recalls it lovingly in her poem In the Panhandle, and she ponders her life in several poems about her family and friends. For the last forty years, she has lived on the Texas Gulf Coast, complete with hurricanes and uncertain weather, all of which is reflected in God Speaks to Me in Silence. God speaks to me in silence, never bombast or demand. The Lord of Lords is patient, always holding out his hand. I seldom take the time to sit and wait for his soft word, But I know Gods there and waits for me whatever has occurred. Its only when I quiet down I hear Gods wondrous voice. Gods always there to talk to me, but I have to make the choice. God speaks to me in silence, when my mind is rapt and still, And its up to me to listen then to hear his perfect will.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Mountain Poems of Stonehouse [is] a tough-spirited book of enlightened free verse."—Kyoto Journal The Zen master and mountain hermit Stonehouse—considered one of the greatest Chinese Buddhist poets—used poetry as his medium of instruction. Near the end of his life, monks asked him to record what he found of interest on his mountain; Stonehouse delivered to them hundreds of poems and an admonition: "Do not to try singing these poems. Only if you sit on them will they do you any good." Newly revised, with the Chinese originals and Red Pine's abundant commentary and notes, The Mountain Poems of Stonehouse is an essential volume for Zen students, readers of Asian literature, and all who love the outdoors. After eating I dust off a boulder and sleep and after sleeping I go for a walk on a cloudy late summer day an oriole sings from a sapling briefly enjoying the season joyfully singing out its heart true happiness is right here why chase an empty name Stonehouse was born in 1272 in Changshu, China, and took his name from a cave at the edge of town. He became a highly respected dharma master in the Zen Buddhist tradition. Red Pine is one of the world's leading translators of Chinese poetry. "Every time I translate a book of poems," he writes, "I learn a new way of dancing. And the music has to be Chinese." He lives near Seattle, Washington.
