The Poet Li Po A.D. 701-762 is a series of poems by Li Po translated into English. Li Po is revered as the most beloved Chinese poet throughout history, known for his ephemeral metaphysical style of writing.
"Two souls, alas! are dwelling in my breast; and one is striving to forsake its brother." Dr. Faust is a brilliant scholar who has reached the limits of human knowledge, yet remains profoundly dissatisfied. In his thirst for infinite experience and absolute truth, he strikes a daring wager with the demon Mephistopheles: if the devil can provide a moment of such perfect bliss that Faust wishes it to never end, the devil may claim his soul. What follows is a cosmic journey through the heights of passion, the depths of despair, and the very foundations of Western civilization. From Personal Tragedy to Global Myth: In Part One, experience the intimate, heartbreaking "Gretchen Tragedy," where Faust's pursuit of earthly pleasure leads to the destruction of an innocent woman. In Part Two, the scope expands into a surreal, phantasmagoric exploration of history, politics, and classical mythology, as Faust seeks to find his place in the broader world. The Height of German Romanticism: Goethe's Faust is more than a play; it is a "World Poem" that captures the restlessness of the modern spirit. It explores the dangerous allure of progress and the redemptive power of the "Eternal Feminine." With its rich symbolism and breathtaking verse, it remains the ultimate exploration of the human condition—asking if a soul that never stops striving can ever truly be lost. Witness the wager that defined an era. Purchase "Faust" today and journey to the edge of heaven and hell.Ver livro
This Poem is Titled 'Beauty of the Human Form. :: It is a poem about the never ending fascination of People with the Human body. Some might say, its in our DNA. That maybe so. The Greeks knew how to display it, as both eroticism and as an Art form. Showing both sexes in the 'Perfect' perfection of Beauty! Unfortunately; the human form, especially the female human form has been in the last few decades since the new renaissance or as we call the sexual revolution or as is now the 'free society'. Denigrated to an object not of art but purely of desire, or descended into the more pornographic exploitive realms of decor art. *NO A.I. has been used in the creation of this Poem. * As for all his poems & s/stories.* *Just the purity of thought of the Author. ***** Please leave your Review/feedback, many thanks. ***** To see more Poems by the same Author please click the Link HERE: https://www.amazon.com/-/e/B00SG40RM8 To contact the Author: Please add me Mike Miko on Facebook & then message me, thanks. https://www.facebook.com/wild.poetry.webs I will then contact the Author your behalf.

“One of the most imaginatively inventive poets in the country.” — Pacific Rim Review of Books The accidents of Priest’s collection are definitely not all “happy.” They move through a full range of human emotions: dread, grief, anger, ecstasy, lust and empathy. Plus some magic levity. This is poetry you will want to recite aloud: lyrical love poems, sonnets, satires, ghazals, curses, and bitter invective. These are not snobby poems — they want and welcome readers who love euphony, who enjoy tasteful eroticism, who rage at injustice. People who grieve and gush — smart people who think critically and form their own opinions. And for those with a taste for “brevity forever.” Accidents After Happening also contains a whole new catalog of Priest’s aphorisms, proverbs, maxims, and sayings — the kind of work that recently prompted Canadian literary icon Margaret Atwood to take to Twitter and praise Priest’s “snappy funny spot-on micro poems — plus much more.” Celebrated as “the people's poet,” Priest’s words have been debated in the Ontario legislature, posted in the Transit system, quoted in the Farmer's Almanac, embedded in cement, sung on Sesame Street, and turned into two hit songs: “Song Instead of a Kiss,” a number one hit for Alannah Myles, and the recent top ten hit by Indigenous balladeer Julian Taylor “Seeds (They Tried to Bury Us).”Ver livro

“Bruce E. Whitacre’s ability to capture this support network and the extraordinary efforts of Jennie Hicks in a manner that reaches beyond the usual literary or arts reader makes her story appealing to a much wider audience” —Diane Donovan, Midwest Book Review “Side by side with the paintings, Whitacre’s book serves as a deeply personal yet relatable account of one woman’s life and turn-of-the-century lifestyle—and clearly demonstrates why this talented painter and pioneer stands as someone to remember.” —BookLife by Publishers Weekly “Bruce E. Whitacre’s collection, The Elk in the Glade, is a lovely and loving celebration of his remarkable great grandmother, Jennie Hicks, life and art, and an inspiring example of how a woman's artistic discipline gave her the courage and insight to transcend the hardships of the Nebraska frontier.” —Ladette Randolph, Editor in Chief, Ploughshares Based on personal memories and family oral history, Whitacre’s debut collection of sixteen poems traces the life and legacy of a family matriarch, his paternal great-grandmother, Jennie Hicks. The daughter of American pioneers, she marries a successful farmer, bearing him three girls, seeing them all married, only to outlive him and the farm. Once again alone and facing hardship, she transforms an almost forgotten hobby, her young girl dream, into a brilliant thirty-year career as a successful landscape painter, the future pride of her hometown, Farnam, Nebraska, and an important figure in American art. Lovers of American history, art, and strong female characters will enjoy these chronicles in verse.Ver livro
A four act play by Oscar Wilde, first performed in 1892, Lady Windermere's Fan is another one of his productions that takes a half-sardonic, half-serious look into the intrigues of life. In this play, Lady Windermere's idyllic life as the young wife of the rich Lord Windermere is disturbed by the rumour that her husband is visiting a lady of ill reputation, and is reportedly spending vast sums of money on her. When confronted with the fact, he fails to adequately explain himself, and furthermore insists on inviting said woman in question, Mrs Erlynne to her birthday ball that night! Distraught, Lady Windermere finds herself seriously entertaining the amorous advances of another man... but was is the truth behind the matter? And where, will her fan finally end up...? Narrated by Michael WardVer livro
