Poetry Human

A maniacal crow tells a sad odyssey about his strange entanglement with depression.

More than 60 stories, poems, and essays are included in this wide-ranging collection by the extravagantly versatile Raymond Carver. Two of the stories - later revised for What We Talk About When We Talk About Love - are particularly notable in that between the first and the final versions, we see clearly the astounding process of Carver's literary development.

On Being Human is a compilation of original poems by Ghazala Alam. Written in modern Urdu and English, each poem is introduced by an English preamble detailing her inspirations and insights. Accompanied by English transliteration, her poetry is informed by her experiences as an immigrant, woman, and a person of color.

When the Gods Were Half Human is an exploration of pain, love and personal transformation which delves—poignant and irreverent—into questions of being and transcendence that blur the line between sacred and mundane.

Across three sequences, Joshua Bennett’s new book recalls and reimagines social worlds almost but not entirely lost, all while gesturing toward the ones we are building even now, in the midst of a state of emergency, together. Bennett opens with a set of autobiographical poems that deal with themes of family, life, death, vulnerability, and the joys and dreams of youth.

Human Resources follows a woman working in the male-dominated world of AI, designing women that don’t exist. In discerning verse, she workshops the facial characteristics of a floating head named “Nia,” who her boss calls “his type”; she loses hours researching “June,” an oddly sexualized artificially intelligent oven; and she spends a whole day “trying to break” a female self-improvement bot. The speaker of Stevenson’s poems grapples with uneasiness and isolation, even as she endeavors to solve for these problems in her daily work.

In this, her debut collection, Millicent Ally sets out to interpret her wide and sometimes painful experience of "this earthly animation . . . in the four sections [she] categorize[s] as 'Life,' 'Love,' 'Introspection,' and 'God'." A Los Angeles native who was reared in Georgia, Ally shares, in the 14 poems that comprise each of the four sections of her book, intimate details of betrayal and triumph: love gone almost right - and love gone inexplicably wrong; faith - and the crisis of its utter lack; the loving light of family - and the dark shadow it can cast.

Kate Tempest is one of the most exciting and innovative performers to have emerged in spoken-word poetry in many years; her dramatic poem Brand New Ancients won the prestigious Ted Hughes Prize for innovation in poetry. Tempest’s wholly unique blend of street poetry, rap and storytelling –...

A Los Angeles native who was reared in Georgia, Ally shares, in the 14 poems that comprise each of the four sections of her book, intimate details of betrayal and triumph: love gone almost right - and love gone inexplicably wrong; faith - and the crisis of its utter lack; the loving light of family - and the dark shadow it can cast. Listening, we find ourselves understanding loneliness, friendship, isolation, and despair until, ultimately, Ally brings us to the truth of the spirit that allows her to transcend all the pain of her humanity.

This audiobook includes 32 classic and contemporary poems dealing with the human condition, including unexpected or inner beauty; self-introspection; friendship; parents; society; suicide; sex and relationships; and confessions.

This poetry book addresses both the beautiful and not so beautiful aspects of humanity. We can be incredibly hard on ourselves and neglect to realize just how resilient, strong, and loving we are. This book aims to help the listener realize their inner power and see just how special they are as a person. We all face countless hardships throughout life and become stronger after each circumstance. We may fail sometimes, but we always endure.

This short set of poems is an expression of our universal need for connection, to ourselves as well as to others, in the most practical and human way possible. Within this beautiful connection to ourselves and others is an essential reconnection to and reconciliation with our shared consciousness. This is, I believe, the ground of our being and the fundamental reality. It seems to me that in order to arrive at this place of intimate connection, it is necessary for us to return to the present, and there, to let go of the past and the illusion of the future.

Pienso, entonces, en Hermann Hesse. Él dijo: «Lo que denominas pasión no es fuerza del alma, sino roce entre el alma y el mundo exterior». Soy humana es eso, el resultado de una pasión por las letras y la necesidad de volcar en palabras los sentimientos más profundos, de ser a través de la palabra escrita en el transcurso del tiempo.
