Book Description
Unwittingly, I quietly poured my heavy heart out. The words flowed freely as I opened my mouth. And as I emptied my heart in a great outpour, There was a relief such as never experienced before. I paused for a moment to collect my thoughts. A quieting peace settled deep in my heart Sean John In this thoughtful reproduction, Sean John shares lyrical verses that reflect on many aspects of life while encouraging others to engage in self-reflection that brings deeper understanding not only of themselves, but also the world around them. Johns poems explore the daily battles of life that include the truths that open eyes, the hurt that accompanies unspoken words, the fullness of life that encourages gratitude, the fears that are overcome by seizing the day, the selflessness that bridges a divide while championing anothers cause, and the power of music to light the world. Walking Tall: Poems for Life shares poetry created to influence, inspire, and enhance the experiences of others as they walk down their own unique paths in life.

Book Description
A powerful, inventive collection from one of America’s most critically acclaimed poets. Carl Phillips’s new poetry collection, Pale Colors in a Tall Field, is a meditation on the intimacies of thought and body as forms of resistance. The poems are both timeless and timely, asking how we can ever truly know ourselves in the face of our own remembering and inevitable forgetting. Here, the poems metaphorically argue that memory is made up of various colors, with those most prominent moments in a life seeming more vivid, though the paler colors are never truly forgotten. The poems in Pale Colors in a Tall Field approach their points of view kaleidoscopically, enacting the self’s multiplicity and the difficult shifts required as our lives, in turn, shift. This is one of Phillips’s most tender, dynamic, and startling books yet.

Book Description
"Like musicians trading solos, McGee and Lofton's voices vibrate with energy, building, jamming, pulsing across urban landscapes, imploring the spirit to stand up, wake up, and feel the trembling complexities of self and culture. This moving collection echoes Whitman and Hughes infused with the power and relevance of Zach De La Roche, poems standing boldly on the street corners of contemporary America." - Theodore Shank, author of Follow the Flickering Down

It includes poems that seek beauty and transfiguration in contemporary life; sonnets inspired by Francis and other outstanding saints; poems centred on love (which might be used at weddings), others on parting and mortality (which might be used at funerals). A further group, Jamming your Machine, searches for the life of the spirit in the midst of the modern era and includes an ode to an iphone.

Book Description
A remarkable Pocket Poets anthology of poems from around the world and across the centuries about illness and healing, both physical and spiritual. From ancient Greece and Rome up to the present moment, poets have responded with sensitivity and insight to the troubles of the human body and mind. Poems of Healing gathers a treasury of such poems, tracing the many possible journeys of physical and spiritual illness, injury, and recovery, from John Donne’s “Hymne to God My God, In My Sicknesse” and Emily Dickinson’s “The Soul has Bandaged moments” to Eavan Boland’s “Anorexic,” from W.H. Auden’s “Miss Gee” to Lucille Clifton’s “Cancer,” and from D.H. Lawrence’s “The Ship of Death” to Rafael Campo’s “Antidote” and Seamus Heaney’s “Miracle.” Here are poems from around the world, by Sappho, Milton, Baudelaire, Longfellow, Cavafy, and Omar Khayyam; by Stevens, Lowell, and Plath; by Zbigniew Herbert, Louise Bogan, Yehuda Amichai, Mark Strand, and Natalia Toledo. Messages of hope in the midst of pain—in such moving poems as Adam Zagajewski’s “Try to Praise the Mutilated World,” George Herbert’s “The Flower,” Wisława Szymborska’s “The End and the Beginning,” Gwendolyn Brooks’ “when you have forgotten Sunday: the love story” and Stevie Smith’s “Away, Melancholy”—make this the perfect gift to accompany anyone on a journey of healing. Everyman's Library pursues the highest production standards, printing on acid-free cream-colored paper, with full-cloth cases with two-color foil stamping, decorative endpapers, silk ribbon markers, European-style half-round spines, and a full-color illustrated jacket.

Her extraordinary poetry is nourished by her intimate knowledge and minute daily observation of the New England coast, its woods and ponds, its birds and animals, plants and trees.
