Book Description
To Keep The Other One Company and Other Poems bridges the gap between "slam poetry" and "page poetry," and ranges from longer pieces which invite quiet contemplation, to performance pieces which will only be fully realized with an audience. Despite experiments with new forms and classics topics: Love, History, Politics, and the Natural World, Mr. Dehnert never forgets the basic imperative to communicate, and the central message is made more accessible by the rhythm and rhyme, instead of less so. He bares a deep concern for an increasingly alienated society, and hopes that these poems and art in general may help to counter the increasing commercialization of the public discourse. All of this gives a sense of urgency to the poetry which both includes and transcends a political agenda. Indeed, these poems describe the space in between people. They reflect on human relations, and at their best, they carry the tension of the time of fear and deep desiring which precedes and permeates a kiss.

Book Description
One of the Greatest Poems in American Literature Walt Whitman (1819-1892) was considered by many to be one of the most important American poets of all time. He had a profound influence on all those who came after him. “Song of Myself”, a portion of Whitman’s monumental poetry collection “Leaves of Grass”, is one of his most beloved poems. It was through this moving piece that Whitman first made himself known to the world. One of the most acclaimed of all American poems, it is written in Whitman’s signature free verse style, without a regular form, meter, or rhythm. His lines have a mesmerizing chant-like quality, as he sought to make poetry more appealing. Few poems are as fun to read aloud as this one. Considered to be the core of his poetic vision, this poem is an optimistic and inspirational look at the world in 1855. It is exhilarating, epic, and fresh in its brilliant and fascinating diction and wordplay as it tries to capture the unique meaning of words of the day, while also embracing the rapidly evolving vocabularies of the sciences and the streets. Far ahead of its time, it was considered by many social conservatives to be scandalous and obscene for its depiction of sexuality and desire, while at the same time, critics hailed the poem as a modern masterpiece. This first version of “Song of Myself” is far superior to the later versions and will delight readers with the playfulness of its diction as it glorifies the self, body, and soul. “I am large, I contain multitudes,”
