  Balthazar dreams of the perfect woman, one he can summon or dismiss at will on his computer screen. But as time passes, he becomes ensnared in his own creation, consumed by an obsession with this non-existent figure. As Balthazar spirals downward, losing everything from his identity to the use of his body, reduced to just his mind and the fingers tapping at the keyboard, she, in contrast, rises. She transforms into a modern-day 
  Scheherazade, learning to command her prince.
   
  Baltha B was unaware,No more sits he upon the chair.The relics of his body’s ruin,Are the one last bastionOf his undoing.Death beckons when the hands they clap,To say, ‘Enough! Your time is up’

  Although not always respected as serious poetry, folk songs and poems like the ones in Songs of the Cattle Trail and Cow Camp represent a long tradition of oral transmission of verse narrative, distinct from more formal and "scholarly" poetical compositions. The poems in this collection speak about love, honor, friendship, and the lives of cowboys. This collection was produced by musicologist and folklorist John A. Lomax , who did much to preserve traditional American songs. The poems in this production were mostly obtained from recitations by interviewees in the American west. John A. Lomax was a significant literary figure whose work has stood the test of time. This public domain edition preserves the original text in its entirety, making it accessible to modern readers and scholars alike. Poetry has always been the most concentrated and powerful form of literary expression. The verse collected in Songs Of The Cattle Trail And Cow Camp represents a high point of the poetic tradition, offering language of beauty and precision that speaks to the deepest levels of human experience.

  I Will Get Up Off Of - Why We...

  Overthinking simple actions leads to overwhelming poems about what one can lean on if promised help doesn’t help 
  I Will Get Up Off Of is a book about trying to leave a chair. How does anyone ever leave a chair? There are so many muscles involved – so many tarot cards, coats, meds, McNuggets, and memes. In this book, poems are attempts and failures at movement as the speaker navigates her anxiety and depression in whatever way she can, looking for hope from social workers on Zoom, wellness influencers, and psychics alike. Eventually, the poems explode in frustration, splintering into various art forms as attempts at expression become more and more desperate. What is there to lean on when avenues promising help don’t help? Bell may want to #talk but does it want to listen? I Will Get Up Off Of explores the role art plays in survival and the hope that underlies every creative impulse. 
  "The voice of these poems moves like a magical fish trapped in a small square bowl, dazzlingly alive inside an almost annihilating constriction. These poems play a serious game in a tight space, caught in the looping limbo between intention — 'I will…' 'I will…', 'I will…'— and action. Simina Banu’s skill and humour animate every line and gesture within this inventive drama that begins '(I will get up off of) this monobloc but I’ve been sentenced…' Sentenced to form and to language, Banu gives us a mind thinking its way toward freedom." – Damian Rogers, author of Dear Leader
