Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection of poems navigates love’s place in the human experience. I place emphasis on “the place of love” because I believe that every poet is driven by a certain shade of love to birth the deepest of poetic pieces. For example, the poet, JP Clark, was driven by the “place of love” to write “Ibadan”. In this collection, the poet uses simple diction to navigate deep and complicated human emotions. We see that in the poem, “Seeds of Love”: The foundation of our love wasn’t strong; it was built on sinking sands, and as hail and sandstorms threatened, our love crashed like a sandcastle. And I think this is what makes this collection unique. Here, we see a poet who is content with the simplicity of language, the lightness of metaphors to express emotions. The poems find their relativity in the softness of their language. As expected, in exploring the “place of love”, these love poems are not just about the flowery feeling and the butterflies that love elicits; no, they mention the heartbreak, the hurt that comes along with it, for is love not about pain and betrayal too? This collection is not only about the “place of love”; as I mentioned earlier, driven by another shade of love, the poet also explores the “love of body” as seen in the poem, “My Body”: I have learnt to love my body with its scars, to treat it like a prized ornament, to worship it and give it the care it deserves. I have learnt to love myself. You will also see poems about the “love of place”, where the poet dissects the soul of his nation, where he mourns a nation that sends her children out to the harsh experience of becoming immigrants in another country. In all, this is a graceful collection of poems, thematically linked in their concerns, yet diverse in the kinds of emotions each one will provoke in the reader.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shameka realized her first self-published book Read In Between the Lines and Within the Margins, was only a springboard for more pieces to come. Loves Prisoner is the result of the inspiration she found in the most complex, awarding, confusing, and passionate topic expressed; Love. The author wrote constantly on the subject with the intent to assure others that they are not alone in the Prison of love. This book not only comprises of poems, but monologues, soliloquys, and other pieces alike, expressed in such a way that deviates from the authors comfort zone. Because Shameka used various types and elements of writing, one will experience the heightened expression of every aspect of love, and lack thereof, including heart break, passion, hate, sex, loneliness, self-love, void, and naturally true love. Like Shamekas first self-publication, the pieces expressed within are relatable to every mind, but most importantly, every heart.

After being a resident of the Department of Corrections only two things happen. You become better or worse because you will never be the same.

Book excerpt: “Wright has found a way to wed fragments of an iconic America to a luminously strange idiom, eerie as a tin whistle, which she uses to evoke the haunted quality of our carnal existence.”—The New Yorker Inspired by numerous visits inside Louisiana state prisons—where MacArthur Fellow C.D. Wright served as a “factotum” for a portrait photographer—One Big Self bears witness to incarcerated men and women and speaks to the psychic toll of protracted time passed in constricted space. It is a riveting mosaic of distinct voices, epistolary pieces, elements from a moralistic board game, road signage, prison data, inmate correspondence, and “counts” of things—from baby’s teeth to chigger bites: Count your folding money Count the times you said you wouldn’t go back Count your debts Count the roaches when the light comes on Count your kids after the housefire One Big Self—originally published as a large-format limited edition that featured photographs and text—was selected by The New York Times and The Village Voice as a notable book of the year. This edition features the poem exclusively. C.D. Wright is the author of ten books of poetry, including several collaborations with photographer Deborah Luster. She is a professor at Brown University.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the 2019 NAACP Image Award for Outstanding Literary Work in Poetry Finalist for the 2019 Los Angeles Times Book Prize in Poetry A searing volume by a poet whose work conveys "the visceral effect that prison has on identity" (Michiko Kakutani, New York Times). Felon tells the story of the effects of incarceration in fierce, dazzling poems—canvassing a wide range of emotions and experiences through homelessness, underemployment, love, drug abuse, domestic violence, fatherhood, and grace—and, in doing so, creates a travelogue for an imagined life. Reginald Dwayne Betts confronts the funk of postincarceration existence and examines prison not as a static space, but as a force that enacts pressure throughout a person’s life. The poems move between traditional and newfound forms with power and agility—from revolutionary found poems created by redacting court documents to the astonishing crown of sonnets that serves as the volume’s radiant conclusion. Drawing inspiration from lawsuits filed on behalf of the incarcerated, the redaction poems focus on the ways we exploit and erase the poor and imprisoned from public consciousness. Traditionally, redaction erases what is top secret; in Felon, Betts redacts what is superfluous, bringing into focus the profound failures of the criminal justice system and the inadequacy of the labels it generates. Challenging the complexities of language, Betts animates what it means to be a "felon."

Book excerpt: This book titled, Symbolic Rhythm: A Poetry Book is a continuation of my first book, Life Is A Story: A Collection Of Poetry. It is filled with a variety of themes, including love, spirituality, inspiration, and ethnicity. It gives the reader a look into my inner thoughts. The book gives a poetic interpretation of my personality. And it gives light to those who are in darkness. The purpose of the book is to give encouragement and inspiration to lovers of poetry and the spoken word. Poetry will always be something that takes a special person to really love. Either you enjoy it or you don't. It's just that simple. Poetry is a connection to the heart and soul. A person must dive into the innermost thoughts of the writer or "poet". Instead of just reading the poetry, you must try to feel the emotions that come with it. This book is a reflection of all of my good and bad times.

During that time he wrote poems, at first to pass the time and then later in exchange for cigarettes, stamps, and other items his fellow inmates would offer as barter or trade for a few inspirational words set to the page. The poems the author penned while in prison form the basis for Huginn and Muninn; a collection of poems that explore many of life's major themes including politics, religion, God, love, heartbreak, and even the battle of good versus evil. These impassioned poems are written from the unique perspective of a man who with his body imprisoned, found the inspiration to free his creative soul.

Book excerpt: Many people who have entered the prison system glorify life behind bars, and treat sentences of more than one hundred years as something worthy of boasting rights. However, while serving ten years, poet D. Jerone vowed that he would not get trapped in the revolving door of prison culture, to land back inside again and again. Prison Poetry is the first in a planned series of five powerful poetry books by Jerone that chronicle real, unvarnished life in prison, revealing it for the chilling, maddening, and utterly unglamorous existence it truly is. Once Jerone resolved to walk out of prison a changed man, he found strength and sanity in pouring out his complex emotions through poetry. Soon, other inmates sought him out to help them express their own feelings, which are also represented in Jerone's writings. Anger, betrayal, fear, hope, and joy are but a few of the reactions that resonated with the poet, as he looked back at his life in the outside world and looked ahead to freedom as a different man. Prison Poetry shares his many impressions of life interrupted so that others will benefit from his journey.
