Streaking! The Collected Poems of Gary Botting - Revised Edition
ISBN: 9781681814186 / Angielski / Twarda / 334 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Half a century ago, Canadian poet Gary Botting pioneered the use of shaped poetry to achieve visual effects often experienced by the reader as vertigo. Most of his published poems pushed the accepted boundaries of poetic and linguistic structure and thematic acceptability. Now his experimental poems are regarded as avant-garde. In Streaking The Collected Poems of Gary Botting, the poet explores themes of unabashed sensuality in a variety of forms, from haikus, sonnets, odes, and ballads to his full-length poetic drama, Prometheus Rebound. His acerbic wit finds voice in poetic sequences such...

Fire and more,: The poetry of Allison Grayhurst
ISBN: 9781517327279 / Angielski / Miękka / 138 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Allison Grayhurst's unique, impressionistic language moves with urgency towards a deeper spiritual understanding, often arriving at potent revelations. Many of the poems confront the duality of life, opening up to infinity while trying to find the signature of infinity in the most rudimentary aspects of existence. There is a rich sexuality in many of them, with a thread of longing flowing through complex imagery. These poems are layered, evoking a deep sense of inner struggle while connecting with a universal rhythm, demanding to be read and re-read.

You Might Appreciate This: Poems
ISBN: 9781491788547 / Angielski / Miękka / 140 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. You Might Appreciate This is a collection of not really poems but more like one-hundred-and-fifty failed little novels-emphasis on "failed." These mini-novels have no titles but numbers. They cruise from one emotion to the next as Swirski takes a 2 a.m. drive and suffers the rebukes of someone he once loved and might love again.

Somnio: The Way We See It
ISBN: 9780994730107 / Angielski / Miękka / 68 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. "Somnio: The Way We See It" is a book about mediation between images and words, words and worlds, visions and cosmos, and identities and locations. It is a collection of art and poetry translated into each other by an artist and three poets. They explore the visions of transformations in nature, in everyday lives, and in mobility from one culture to another. In their works, a profound meditation on ordinary details creates lyrical dreams, which are in turn embedded in the lines and shadows of reality. Tiffany Adair's lithographs display a wide range of artistic engagements: the bio-organic...

Bartender? More like town coke whore... "If he's just gonna waste it then give me his share " She squealed like a wanting junkie. In five more years her tits will be sagging like her life... Jay stood up for me... "Leave him alone. He's having a good time." The bartender walked out of the washroom in a huff then came back just as quick. When you're that far down the rabbit hole Its too much effort to climb back out Especially when the drug is at the bottom.

Beer, tequila shots and cocaine Lifts the night like helium Blitzing across the junkies and whores That twitch and speed through the blinking lights While I stumble and fumble Trying to give an air of violence To keep from getting jumped From bar to bar Beer to beer Shot to shot All fueled by cocaine eyes Numbed nasal passage persuasion Strutting East Hastings In the shadows of steel-shuttered pawn shops The fascination and familiarity of poverty Keeping me coming back When I should be home Next to her warm body Instead of these cold East side streets.

Where Eagles Weep: Poetry and Verse from North America: West Coast and Central Canada
ISBN: 9781530190980 / Angielski / Miękka / 226 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. ABOUT THE BOOK Where Eagles Weep is a collection of free-form narrative, descriptive, and lyrical poetry and verse, set in North America, but relevant to the world. It is written over the past number of years, from the perspective and observations of a Canadian woman who grew up on the prairies and resided for some time on the West Coast. This is not "pretty" poetry. In several individual selections, the author addresses the "underbelly" of humanity, although she usually attempts to find the light that follows the dark. In one section, she masterfully tackles contemporary Canadian challenges,...
