Download or read book Prelude to Bruise written by Saeed Jones and published by Coffee House Press. This book was released on 2014-08-18 with total page 123 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Praise for Saeed Jones: "Jones is the kind of writer who's more than wanted: he's desperately needed."—FlavorWire "I get shout-happy when I read these poems; they are the gospel; they are the good news of the sustaining power of imagination, tenderness, and outright joy."—D. A. Powell "Prelude to Bruise works its tempestuous mojo just under the skin, wreaking a sweet havoc and rearranging the pulse. These poems don't dole out mercy. Mr. Jones undoubtedly dipped his pen in fierce before crafting these stanzas that rock like backslap. Straighten your skirt, children. The doors of the church are open."—Patricia Smith "It's a big book, a major book. A game-changer. Dazzling, brutal, real. Not just brilliant, caustic, and impassioned but a work that brings history—in which the personal and political are inter-constitutive—to the immediate moment. Jones takes a reader deep into lived experience, into a charged world divided among unstable yet entrenched lines: racial, gendered, political, sexual, familial. Here we absorb each quiet resistance, each whoop of joy, a knowledge of violence and of desire, an unbearable ache/loss/yearning. This is not just a "new voice" but a new song, a new way of singing, a new music made of deep grief's wildfire, of burning intelligence and of all-feeling heart, scorched and seared. In a poem, Jones says, "Boy's body is a song only he can hear." But now that we have this book, we can all hear it. And it's unforgettable."—Brenda Shaughnessy "Inside each hunger, each desire, speaks the voice of a boy that admits "I've always wanted to be dangerous." This is not a threat but a promise to break away from the affliction of silence, to make audible the stories that trouble the dimensions of masculinity and discomfort the polite conversations about race. With impressive grace, Saeed Jones situates the queer black body at the center, where his visibility and vulnerability nurture emotional strength and the irrepressible energy to claim those spaces that were once denied or withheld from him. Prelude to a Bruise is a daring debut."—Rigoberto González From "Sleeping Arrangement": Take your hand out from under my pillow. And take your sheets with you. Drag them under. Make pretend ghosts. I can't have you rattling the bed springs so keep still, keep quiet. Mistake yourself for shadows. Learn the lullabies of lint. Saeed Jones works as the editor of BuzzfeedLGBT.

Book excerpt: I wasn’t dreaming; I was visiting. I had a unicorn race with Jesus, Mary, and Jesus’ dad. Mick’s father, Mark, was stunned to hear the words from his son, who was battling cancer. He posted the story on Facebook—allowing people to intimately step inside their lives. After his son’s diagnosis, Mark had doubts and was even angry, but God stood close to him and led his family across the country seeking treatments banned in some places. Jesus gave him and his wife, Rachel, the strength to do whatever it took to save their boy. The Macholls’ need to help their son also ignited a desire to promote change and educate the world about the ineffectiveness of conventional medicine versus integrative care. They seek to spark a movement that will give parents a choice and provide hope after a grim diagnosis. The stakes for Mark and Rachel couldn’t be higher: their young son’s life. With candor, they share the ups and downs they went through during a struggle that ultimately brought them closer to God—and each other.

Download or read book Why They Fight written by T.M. Howell and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2013-10-16 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "It is 4:30 a.m. Michelle. It is time to wake up," a soft automated female voice whispers, Michelle; it is time to wake up." "Alright, I'm up, I'm up, just shut up." Michelle snaps at the clock. At that moment, the voice-operated clock begins to play the programmed music set for mornings. Michelle begins to sit up, stretching her body as she tries to shake the world of slumber; she realizes that after today her whole world will change. This was a very important day for her. As a journalist, she must be ready at all times, but it has been a while since she had to get up so early. This is a very unorthodox manner of doing things in her field. Usually all interviews had to be approved by the interviewee and management. She was personally approached by military personnel for this assignment instead of getting assigned the interview. The higher-ups had no idea and she saw this as a great opportunity to move ahead. She would be the first reporter to get an exclusive interview without the usual censorship. It was unheard of having an uncensored interview with military and political personnel. The Republic was very strict on what was put out there about its leaders. This had always been the norm for Michelle and others that grew up in the new Republic. "Telescreen on." she commands her voice activated system, "Turn to channel 3. Music off." while heading toward her bathroom in her dark apartment, passing by the kitchen, "Coffee brew." At that moment, the kitchen lights come on and the coffee maker begins to percolate. As she approaches the bathroom she reluctantly calls out, "Bathroom lights." The lights slowly come on as she enters the area. Michelle stood there looking into the mirror. This was something she performed every morning when she woke up. Running both her hands through her curly brown hair, she sighs, as her hair falls back down on her shoulders. She looks into her own light brown eyes that seem to change colors in different lights. She felt that her eyes where her best feature. She never truly felt as beautiful as others saw her. Men would always complement her on her flawless naturally tanned skin, her full lips and her nearly athletic body. She always felt that a man would say anything to get close to her. She exercises almost everyday after work, because of her belief that she is not physically where she should be, plus all her life in school and everywhere else the Republic had always pushed that sound health shows loyalty to oneself and the Republic.

Justin Wren knows what it's like to feel like the world is against you. Like many kids, Justin was bullied as a child, but had a dream that kept him going. Fueled by the anger he felt toward his tormenters, Justin trained hard and propelled his dream of becoming a UFC fighter into reality. But the pain from his childhood didn't dissipate and Justin fell into a spiral of depression and addiction, leading him on a path toward destruction. After getting kicked out of his training community, his career was in shambles and he had nowhere else to go, so Justin attended a men's retreat, and it was there he found God. As Justin began piecing his life back together, he joined several international mission trips that opened his eyes and his heart to a world filled with suffering deep in the jungle of the Democratic Republic of Congo. There he came across the Mbuti Pygmy tribe, a group of people persecuted by neighboring tribes and forced into slavery. His encounter with the Pygmy tribe left him wondering who was there to help them and in that moment Justin stepped out of the ring and into a fight for the forgotten. From cage fighter to freedom fighter, Justin's story is a deeply personal memoir with a bigger message about a quest, justice, and the amazing things that can happen when we relinquish our lives to God"--
