  Human Resources - Poems

  Winner of the Max Ritvo Poetry
  Prize, Ryann Stevenson’s Human Resources is a sobering and
  perceptive portrait of technology’s impact on connection and power.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. She attempts to
  harness control by eating clean, doing yoga, and searching for age-defying skin
  care, though she dreams “about the department / that women get reassigned to
  after they file / harassment complaints.” With sharp, lyrical intelligence, she
  imagines alternative realities where women exist not for the whims of men but
  for their own—where they become literal skyscrapers, towering over a world that
  never appreciated them.Chilling and lucid, Human
  Resources challenges the minds programming our present and future to consider
  what serves the collective good. Something perhaps more thoughtful and human,
  Stevenson writes: “I want to say better.”

  A Pretty Sight

  Like the rhapsodists, the storytellers of ancient Greece, A Pretty Sight shapes voices of the past and present into a stitched song lifted and sounded toward the next century. Haunted by ‘time's frame / that dark shape near the edge of the canvas,’ O’Meara's new book explores aspects of culture, art, war, rebellion and technology, offering defiance amid decay.
     
  ‘O’Meara is a poet of the personal. Of the person. In and amongst the social documentary and human observation at which he excels, here is a writer prepared to put feelings on the line and to argue his case with the reader. This is proud, felt, and affecting work — I can't think of many other poets so prepared to engage and so equipped to succeed.’ —Simon Armitage

  Do ye hear the children weeping, O my brothers, 
        Ere the sorrow comes with years ? 
  They are leaning their young heads against their mothers, — 
        And that cannot stop their tears.

  In his third poetry collection from Red Hen Press, Kim Stafford gathers poems that sing with empathy, humor, witness, and story. Poems in this book have been set to music, quoted in the New York Times, posted online in the Academy of American Poets poem-a-day series, gathered in a chapbook sold to benefit Ukrainian refugees, posted online in response to Supreme Court decisions, composed for a painter’s gallery opening, and in other ways engaged a world at war with itself, testifying for the human project hungry for kinship, exiled from bounty, and otherwise thirsting for the oxygen of healing song.

  The language of Poetry is an art that most of us attempt at some point in our lives.  Although its commonplace exposure has been somewhat marginalised in today’s often fast-paced lives we all recognise good verse that can empathise with our thoughts or open us up to experience new things in new ways, to better understand and to enjoy the many strands of our lives. 
  But finding a starting point can be overwhelming, even off-putting, so in this series we offer up our Top 10 classic poets, who brim with talent and verse, on a range of subjects and themes that we can all enjoy. 
  In this volume we listen to the world through the eyes and words of the English Romantics.  This very special poetical period is filled with the loving and tender verse of poets who still beguile us all with their beauty.
