Book Synopsis Finding My Words by : Michael Obel-Omia
Download or read book Finding My Words written by Michael Obel-Omia and published by . This book was released on 2021-07-10 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Michael's book of poetry is an act of courage and of beauty. In Finding My Voice, Michael uses poems to render the experience of living with aphasia with tenderness, frustration, and eloquence. Aphasia changes our relationship to words, as both Michael and I know all too well. And yet a changed relationship is not a broken one, just like a life redirected by a singular traumatic event is not a broken one. Michael epitomizes so beautifully finding purpose in hardship, and I'm so grateful for the gift of this unforgettable collection of poems." -Gabby Giffords, former Congresswoman "Finding My Words is a gift to the world. Michael Obel-Omia's voice is so important; it is so hard to express oneself with Aphasia. I trembled with familiarity reading many of the poems. Anyone who wants to understand aphasia-whether you have it or not-should read this book." -Debra Meyerson, PhD. Professor, Stanford University; Author of Identity Theft: Rediscovering Ourselves After Stroke "Finding My Words is an astonishing, humbling, extraordinary and stunning collection. It speaks to the resiliency of the human spirit and should be required reading for everyone involved with the aphasia community as well as anyone with an appreciation of poetry as a means of expression. Michael Obel-Omia immerses the reader into the vortex of aphasia, challenging, teaching, and inspiring us along the way as he sheds light on this little known and often misunderstood condition." -Jerome Kaplan, MA, CCC-SLP Speech-language pathologist

Book excerpt: "My Words, My Rules" by author Malaika Tinashe is a brilliant and revealing poetry book that reflects social injustices on profound levels. The author uses her words with razor sharp clarity to mirror the brutalities, traumas and the loss of innocence she's experienced as a young black female growing up in the era of anti-abortion and #Metoo movements, attacks on the LGBTQ communities by the Trump Administration, police harassment of black youth, "misogynoir" specifically targeting black women and outgrowth of white supremacy groups in the 21st century. Malaika Tinashe shares the harsh, ugly, painful; even frightening truths about personal relationships of self-harm, pedophile encounters, date rape, abandonment, sexism, bullying and the loss of loved ones. Interwoven throughout her poetry is a message of hope, strength, optimism and a pragmatic approach to life¿ bad experiences may shape you but don't let them defeat you.

Book Synopsis The Room Is on Fire by : Susan Weinstein
Download or read book The Room Is on Fire written by Susan Weinstein and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2018-05-31 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Room Is on Fire offers an overview of youth spoken word poetry's history, its practitioners, participants, and practices. Susan Weinstein explores its grounding in earlier literary/performance/educational traditions and discusses its particular challenges. In order to analyze these issues, the story of how youth spoken word poetry developed as a field is told through the voices of those involved. Interviewees include the people who organized the first youth poetry slam festivals, the founders of central youth spoken word organizations, and a selection of young people who have participated in their local programs and in regional and national events over the last two decades. Narratives about individual and communal efforts and experiences are supported by analyses of full-text poems by youth poets and by reference to contemporary scholarship in performance studies, critical youth studies, and new literacy studies. Blending history and theory with practical descriptions of how spoken word poetry is taught and how to produce spoken word events, the book will appeal to researchers, teacher educators, and K–12 teachers.
Book Synopsis My Head Lives Here by : Mia Shparaga
Download or read book My Head Lives Here written by Mia Shparaga and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2019-10-31 with total page 55 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a residence for thoughts that cannot live inside a head. The majority of the poems in this collection endeavor to articulate the often-overwhelming elusiveness of the world around us. Each piece intends to invoke an image that relates to moments in our life that we relive every now and then – flavoring our conscious with either hints of nostalgia or the essence of apprehension. Those moments that have been hidden away in our deepest memories, displaced by the bustling substance of “things that matter.” Throughout the text, there is an obvious evolution of emotional depth and complexity in my perception of the adequate words to say. Yet, the entire collection represents my current state as a new author, aspiring to emulate the effortless yet profound simplicity of words as art. As an extension of my own reality, the world inside these pages explores the extremes of emotion that are sometimes better read than felt.

Book Synopsis Words in Love Poetry Collection by Daniel Duwa by : Daniel Duwa
Download or read book Words in Love Poetry Collection by Daniel Duwa written by Daniel Duwa and published by . This book was released on 2021-04 with total page 32 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Words In Love Poetry Collection are some select pieces of poetry I wrote throughout my teenage years that I have just rediscovered. This might not seem to matter very much except, when I became homeless, I lost all my worldly possession including all the creative works I had produced in 30 years. Limited autographed books from authors, films, images, articles, and poetry I had written every single day since age 10, all gone. That said, I have gone to mentor talents and skills in leaders who have brought impact to the world. These pieces here remind me of why I am still passionate. It captures a moment but projects a time not yet been, a bit like a time capsule. Maybe I am just exaggerating so my only ask is, enjoy the pierces and make your own conclusions. Regards, Daniel.

Book Synopsis My Vocabulary Did This to Me by : Jack Spicer
Download or read book My Vocabulary Did This to Me written by Jack Spicer and published by Wesleyan University Press. This book was released on 2010-08-15 with total page 500 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An essential collection of a highly original American poet Winner of the Northern California Independent Booksellers Award for Poetry (2009) Winner of the American Book Award (2009) In 1965, when the poet Jack Spicer died at the age of forty, he left behind a trunkful of papers and manuscripts and a few copies of the seven small books he had seen to press. A West Coast poet, his influence spanned the national literary scene of the 1950s and '60s, though in many ways Spicer's innovative writing ran counter to that of his contemporaries in the New York School and the West Coast Beat movement. Now, more than forty years later, Spicer's voice is more compelling, insistent, and timely than ever. During his short but prolific life, Spicer troubled the concepts of translation, voice, and the act of poetic composition itself. My Vocabulary Did This to Me is a landmark publication of this essential poet's life work, and includes poems that have become increasingly hard to find and many published here for the first time.
