These are the poems that oozed out of the poet's experience and perception looking at people and the world around him. Most of the poems are on the themes of love, life, and liberty. They cover a decade-long time period in the Himalayan country of Nepal that was affected by the People's War. All poems carry emotions, human sentiments, and remnants of war, poverty, and loss of lives. Brilliant poetry, strong images, and very poetic!

A veces uno se topa con la muerte, a pesar de no haberla presentido, y no solo no se extraña sino que la acepta con la misma naturaleza con la que se acepta la vida.

Take a look into the mind of the undead bohemian Jack Townson, an artist who found himself trapped in a world of nightmares, a life without sunlight, never to feel the warmth of day or the permanence of true love. Jack dives inward to put pen to paper, filling each minute with forbidden secrets—from the loves he's lost, to the friends he's made, to the villains who have plagued him, and the dreams of tomorrow. Step into the shoes of a child of dusk trying to find his way back into the dawn.

Written over the course of five years, these poems grapple with purpose and reality from a myriad of existentialist perspectives and themes. Through these poems, we travel through the cosmos, to various mythological settings, and even to our own neurons. If you’re seeking to rearrange your grey matter, this is the collection for you.

c a r v e d, Kate Mapother's first collection of poetry, explores life and loss in its varied dimensions. At once gut-wrenching and hopeful, these poems take the listener by the hand and heart through themes of sexuality, God, love, grief, and family. The writing is rich in imagery and substance, leaving no doubt in the listener's mind about Mapother's ability to plumb the depths of hard emotion, then land you somewhere soft. These poems don't pretend to know. They simply witness.

Whatever happens, happens. Right? Whoever overthinks also overloves. Right? Just let it go. Right? Just stop doing it. Right? How? All these statements and no understanding of how to do it. It doesn't happen overnight, but does it even happen at all? Do I get too busy to remember? Do I become too numb to feel? How? How do I just stop? Just go, get over, and pretend? Everything happens for a reason. Right? Everything makes you stronger. Right? Wrong. I was weak. I was down. I was broken. I was lost. I made the choice to be stronger and rebuild again. I guess it is what it is. Right?

In these poems of holding and letting go, Mapother isn't afraid to plumb the depths. Just when you think you can't breathe, she breaks the surface, with you in her gentle hands. In her own words, each line is an homage to the scars that form us.

Wenn die erfolgreichen Kämpfe und schmerzhaften Niederlagen des Lebens (im Alter so um die 50 - drei links, drei rechts, drei fallen lassen) auf einander treffen, Scheidungen abgeschlossen wurden, große und kleine Kinder aus frühen oder mittleren Beziehungen ihre eigenen Wege gehen, mehrere Karrieren bereits weggearbeitet worden sind, und es eigentlich nichts mehr zu beweisen gibt, und dann ein ordentlicher Schluck Hormone dazu kommt.

A Misguided Thought is a collection of poetry that shows the overall life experiences of a 21-year-old—from living a sheltered life writing about his hopes and dreams to struggling with mental disorders, heartache, and trying to find his way back to the light through faith itself. The words within these pages intend to bring solace and clarity in times of conviction, and Jaelyn has come to be one of this generation’s greatest poets.

Who's Going to Love the Dying Girl? by Bree Rolfe is a revolutionary debut poetry collection touching on society, loss, illness, and learning to grasp with things that cannot be changed. Rolfe executes verse with precision and fierceness.

El libro del Génesis habla de una escalera "apoyada en la tierra" cuyo "extremo toca el cielo" y de la cual suben y descienden los ángeles. Este subir de la tierra y bajar del cielo se le presenta al autor, tras la muerte repentina de su hijo, como una vía doble y simultánea para poder aliviar su dolor y acceder a la sabiduría. Paralelamente esta imagen le sugiere diferentes formas de pensar, una clara y sencilla, que poco a poco se va haciendo poesía, y otra, emocional, compleja e incierta, que se va convirtiendo en filosofía.

In her devastatingly powerful debut collection, Cecilia Knapp examines the experience of motherlessness and its lasting impact, as well as the lessons passed between generations of women. These poems explore women's complicated relationship with their bodies, with sex, and with shame as she traverses the violence of romantic love, but also employs humour and mischief, a wry reclaiming of power.

When I was in the fourth grade, we had a map of Vietnam on our kitchen wall. When my mother received an airmail letter, she would walk to the map and move one of the stickpins to a new location to see if one of her brothers was in harm’s way in some new hot spot or battle. I spent a lot of time worrying about that map. I had five uncles in Southeast Asia during the Vietnam War. This is a book about going off to war, a book about coming back home, and a book about those who are left behind. I dedicate this book to those voices, my family, and every voice calling out at times of war.

Pain and trauma are what makes us human, arguably unifying us as a species. Finding our way out can be traumatic itself at the best of times, always confusing and so often riddled with false starts and mistakes. Through poetry, this collection will make you cry, laugh, empathize, question, and eventually help you find your way through and out of that dark place. From someone who has experienced the journey, and put in the years of study and work required to build a tool set to make the needed progress toward better mental health—the time is right to share this work with the world.

Gottfried Benn im Originalton Gottfried Benns lyrisches Werk gehört zum Sprachgewaltigsten, was die deutsche Literatur des 20. Jahrhunderts hervorgebracht hat. Diese Auswahl setzt nicht einseitig auf Bekanntes, sondern lädt zu neuen Entdeckungen ein. Der melancholische Klang von Gottfried Benns Stimme und die leise Musikalität seines Vortrags verleihen den Texten eine ganz eigene Intensität.

From the crushing comfort of the womb-dark ocean, the poems in Francesca Marais' Emerge rise to the surface and breathe deeply. Untangling the tentacles of family and romance and imagination, the poet carries the listener along on a journey toward self-love and acceptance. Salt of tears, of stinging wounds, of breaking waves—to know the self requires all of these. There is ache here, but also nourishment. Emerge shows us how to stop holding our breath, how to see our own reflection in the ocean's blue eyes.
