Book excerpt: Writing is the way I deal with my own demons that try to trip me up and discourage me. Its how I cope with the stress of recovery and maintaining a sober lifestyle. It is my fondest wish to encourage all that are broken, oppressed and battling addiction because there is a better way to live in this world not without troubles but because of them. May these poems bless you with healing, hope and humor. - Charlieboy

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Whether recalling long days on a tractor, late nights at prayer meeting, or the joyful heartbreak of raising a family, the poems in Twisted Shapes of Light take truth where they find it. William Jolliff wraps both arms around the phenomenon old Quakers called "that of God in everyone," welcoming into his work a unique cast of characters seldom portrayed in contemporary poetry. The result is an honest struggle with faith and failure--and even an occasional revelation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Taking its name from the moon's dark plains, misidentified as seas by early astronomers, The Black Maria investigates African diasporic histories, the consequences of racism within American culture, and the question of human identity. Central to this project is a desire to recognize the lives of Eritrean refugees who have been made invisible by years of immigration crisis, refugee status, exile, and resulting statelessness. The recipient of a 2015 Whiting Award for Poetry, Girmay's newest collection elegizes and celebrates life, while wrestling with the humanistic notion of seeing beyond: seeing violence, seeing grace, and seeing each other better. "to the sea" great storage house, history on which we rode, we touched the brief pulse of your fluttering pages, spelled with salt & life, your rage, your indifference your gentleness washing our feet, all of you going on whether or not we live, to you we bring our carnations yellow & pink, how they float like bright sentences atop your memory's dark hair Aracelis Girmay is the author of two poetry collections, Teeth and Kingdom Animalia, which won the Isabella Gardner Award and was a finalist for the NBCC Award. The recipient of a 2015 Whiting Award, she has received grants and fellowships from the Jerome, Cave Canem, and Watson foundations, as well as Civitella Ranieri and the NEA. She currently teaches at Hampshire College's School for Interdisciplinary Arts and in Drew University's low residency MFA program. Originally from Santa Ana, California, she splits her time between New York and Amherst, Massachusetts.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This earthly plane offers much for us to learn: happiness, wisdom, loss, heartbreak, and enlightenment. It is a Pandora's box of emotions, situations, opportunities, and failures, all wrapped into a package we call life. Nobody is immune, but everyone has the opportunity to grow tall or wither like a flower in harsh light. It's completely up to us how we choose to respond. Finding Hope in the Darkness of Grief is a gleaning of insights from artist Diamante Lavender. For her, life has been a long, difficult road, but it has taught many poignant lessons. Her poetry collection is an exploration of the human soul, a traversing of situations that life throws at us. Diamante has always been intrigued by the ability to overcome and move on to bigger and better things. She writes to encourage hope and possibility in those who read her stories. If she can help others heal, as she has, then Diamante's work as an author and artist will have been well spent. She believes that everyone should try to leave a positive mark on the world, to make it a better place for all. Writing is the way that she is attempting to leave her markone story at a time.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When was the last time your senses were sparked? Enjoy this masterful collection of original poems written in eight distinct styles. This lively poetry will awake the beauty of your mind and help you find purpose. Some poems are humorous, intense, and expressive. Others are bold, politically incorrect, and brimming with candor, while many inspire chanting and singing, dancing and swinging, praise and worship. Limerick, Sonnet, Haiku, Pastoral, Odes, Narratives, Acrostics, are all written to create that essential dialogue within. These poems will stimulate quick smiles, light chatter, and a little laughter here and there. But they will also provoke deep thought, honest reflection and trigger those must-have conversations. Who are you, really? What is your purpose? Do you have a worldview? How is your relationship with God, self, and others? You will experience many moments of truth to ignore or embrace. Discover -- in spite of different times and circumstances, we are really not that different. We all have ups and downs, twists and turns, regrets, grief, happy moments, and of course -- a bit of nostalgia. Take this amazingly delightful journey with reality penned in poetry. It’s a creative, unique way to build your faith, find yourself, and understand your God-given purpose.
