Author: Matty Cox

ISBN: 9781926606446
Category : Humor
Languages : en
Pages : 142
Book Description
Perhaps the greatest book of poetry ever written. Matty Cox is a sheer genius and a cunning linguist. He paints words onto a page the way Da Vinci did onto ceilings, or was that Michelangelo? Either way, he's impressive. The emotionality of this master work explodes from the pages and hits you straight in the face with a walloping force. This book will mesmerize and provocatize. If you don't buy this book right now you must suffer from some sort of genetic disorder that affects the part of your brain that controls good decisions, because you will be clearly making a bad decision. Considered by the Incas to be a cross between William Shakespeare and Wilt Chamberlain, Matty Cox is truly a genius of our time. Please, let him put his poems in you. They won't disappoint.

Make Me Rain
Author: Nikki Giovanni
Publisher: HarperCollins
ISBN: 0062995308
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 144
Book Description
One of America’s most celebrated poets challenges us with this powerful and deeply personal collection of verse that speaks to the injustices of society while illuminating the depths of her own heart. For more than fifty years, Nikki Giovanni’s poetry has dazzled and inspired readers. As sharp and outspoken as ever, she returns with this profound book of poetry in which she continues to call attention to injustice and racism, celebrate Black culture and Black lives, and and give readers an unfiltered look into her own experiences. In Make Me Rain, she celebrates her loved ones and unapologetically declares her pride in her Black heritage, while exploring the enduring impact of the twin sins of racism and white nationalism. Giovanni reaffirms her place as a uniquely vibrant and relevant American voice with poems such as “I Come from Athletes” and “Rainy Days”—calling out segregation and Donald Trump; as well as “Unloved (for Aunt Cleota)” and “”When I Could No Longer”—her personal elegy for the relatives who saved her from an abusive home life. Stirring, provocative, and resonant, the poems in Make Me Rain pierce the heart and nourish the soul.
