Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Edge of the Crater, and Other Poems I stood on the edge of the crater, where the lava leaps below, And saw in that furnace featured a form that I seemed to know. Many a traveler stood there, inspired by the thrilling sight, While the blush of the burning brimstone crimsoned the ceil of night. With reverent fingers marking the sign of the holy cross, A priest stood close beside me, watching the fire-fonts toss; "Here in this pit is pictured" - he spoke with the voice of gloom - "The fate of the hopeless fallen; the dreadful day of doom!" Silent, a sinner trembled at the word of the ghostly man, For the fear of a future fury through his troubled conscience ran. Then a child, with her eyes laugh-lighted, reflecting the flowing flame, Came close to my side and whispered the sound of a sacred name. "Isn't it grand?" she murmured - "To me it is life, not death!" And it seemed that the scent of lilies was borne on her baby breath. I stood on the edge of the crater, where the fire-flood springs and falls, And saw in that furnace featured a form that my soul recalls: Fortune and fate and fancy, fancy and fortune and fate, Fate and fancy and fortune, and all that they three create; The love of life and of laughter, the life of laughter and love, Where love takes life to his heart for wife, and the joy that is born thereof. Passion I saw in the making, with never a thought of shame, For mind is the master spirit that sets all the world aflame. Afar, like a welkined wafer, so cool and so pale, the moon Looked down on the lake of lava, on the heart of the world a-swoon, And the burning breakers battered at the cindered cliffs alway, Eating beneath with their torching teeth and tearing the brink away.

Download or read book Mandela the Spear and Other Poems written by Atukwei Okai and published by African Books Collective. This book was released on 2013 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The strength of Mandela the Spear and other Poems lies in Okai's burning desire to celebrate the black experience and culture, through the iconic figures who symbolize those struggles and triumphs. Thus, not surprisingly, one encounters names like Mandela, Nadine Gordimer, Amilcar Cabral, Patrice Lumumba, Kwame Nkrumah, to name a few. Okai has long established himself as one of the towering figures in the field of modern African poetry in English. He is regarded as one of the pioneers of a vigorous reinvention of the poetic genre that revolutionized the poet/audience relationship, changed the mode of expression from scriptography to narratology, and the role of the audience from that of passive reception to active participation.

Download or read book Simple Eyes & Other Poems written by Michael McClure and published by New Directions Publishing. This book was released on 1994 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The running theme in Michael McClure's Simple Eyes & Other Poems is: looking at the world directly. The results are often as disquieting as they are illuminating. In the long title poem, the stanzas on the Persian Gulf War bloom out of images of all wars the poet has known -- the spiritual wars, the napalm and cordite and nuclear wars, and the war against nature -- and become a kind of spiritual autobiography. At the heart of the poetry is McClure's return to the ancient concept of agnosia, the idea of knowing through unknowing, as a way of living in desparate times in which deep human or humane feelings have become almost outlaw.

Download or read book Hawaii Chronicles III written by Robert P. Dye and published by University of Hawaii Press. This book was released on 2000-08-01 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pearl Harbor. December 7, 1941--in the words of President Franklin Roosevelt, "a date which will live in infamy." More than 350 Japanese bombers, fighters, and torpedo planes struck Hawai'i in two waves, sinking or disabling eighteen ships and destroying more than two hundred aircraft. Close to 2,500 American military and civilians died that morning, another 1,178 were wounded. The Hawaiian Islands had been pulled into the Pacific War and the lives of its citizens were irrevocably changed. Hawai'i Chronicles III: World War Two in Hawai'i looks at the human and social impact of the war on the people of Hawai'i from 1938, when speculation of a Pacific War first surfaced, to the era of postwar prosperity that followed. Editor Bob Dye has selected articles that originally appeared in the popular monthly magazine Paradise of the Pacific (now known as Honolulu magazine). An introduction describes the history of the magazine and the colorful characters who published and edited it. Dye then poses the question: How did Hawai'i's citizenry cope with the war? Blackouts, media censorship, gas and food rationing were imposed. Schools were commandeered, jobs were changed or modified to support the war effort (lei makers were set to making camouflage netting). And soldiers were everywhere: stringing barbed wire (along Waikiki Beach!), guarding public buildings and searching anyone who entered, worrying parents when they dated their daughters. Paradise of the Pacific provided its readers with an informative, perceptive, and often entertaining look at these and other everyday experiences of life in wartime Hawai'i.
