  This book will be different, but unique. 
  For my poetry is real and somewhat sheik. 
  They’re all short stories about my past. 
  Family, loved ones, and dreams that couldn’t last. 
    
  Freedom of speech {so called} I am blunt. 
  I can write about anything and everything I want. 
  Fighting for life, children, and my rights has been a hassle. 
  Throughout my life it’s been a long battle. 
    
  Reading these poems are pieces of me. 
  Funny, sad, about love, and eternity. 
  Opening to others is new for me as well. 
  Hopefully, guide, or give you relief, time will tell. 
    
  Thank you to those who gave me the chance. 
  Thanks to my Family and Kids for the influence. 
  Thanks to my Husband for dealing with my crap. 
  Thanks to God for getting me out of those traps.

  The Pulitzer Prize-finalist play that “speaks to the fractious, frightened American moment" through the lives two couples and their strained friendship (Charles Isherwood, The New York Times).In a "first ring" suburb of a midsize American city, Ben and Mary fire up the grill to welcome the new neighbors who've moved into the long-empty house next door. The fledgling friendship soon veers out of control, shattering the fragile hold that newly unemployed Ben and burgeoning alcoholic Mary have on their way of life—with unexpected comic consequences. Detroit is a fresh, offbeat look at what happens when we dare to open ourselves up to something new. After premiering at Chicago's Steppenwolf Theatre to rave reviews, Lisa D'Amour's brilliant and timely play won the 2013 Obie Award, as well as becoming a finalist for the Pulitzer and Susan Smith Blackburn Awards.

  Please make me pretty I don't...

  Tawanda Mulalu

  The debut collection of an exciting new voice in poetry 
   
   
   
  Please make me pretty, I don't want to die explores tactility, sound, sensuality, and intimacy. Set across the four seasons of a year, these fresh and original poems by Tawanda Mulalu combine an inviting confessional voice and offbeat imagery, and offer an appealing mixture of seriousness and humor. 
   
   
   
  The speaker of these poems probes romantic and interracial intimacy, the strangeness and difficulty of his experiences as a diasporic Black African in White America, his time working as a teacher's assistant in a third-grade classroom, and his ambivalent admiration for canonical poets who have influenced him, especially Sylvia Plath. Juxtaposing traditional forms such as sonnets and elegies with less orthodox interjections, such as prose-poem "prayers" and other meditations, the collection presents a poetic world both familiar and jarring—one in which history, the body, and poetry can collide in a single surprising turn of image: "The stars also suffer. Immense and dead, their gasses burn / distant like castanets of antebellum teeth. My open window / a synecdoche of country."
