Summary

We all have memories some of them make you happy and many of them make you sad, but do you ever wonder how we store all these memories? Imagine by the time you are a pensioner how much space you need to store all these memories, just like a smartphone starts to fail due to memory overload it is obvious that even the smartest human can get overwhelmed with too much in the databanksIn the first GEO poetry book we touched on some memories and how they are made by making connections with people on a daily basis, in this second detailed book of GEO poetry we look into how the memories are stored in everybody's basement, a huge pile of unsorted trinkets infested with the insects and the dust.This is another deep darker collection of poetry from the poet Darren Hobson who continues to peel back the layers of his mind, memories and fantasies collide here in another display of might from the this upcoming artist, he who dares to ask all the awkward questions, he who dares to reveal some of his secrets, he who dares to show that we are humans with a huge dark weight on our shoulders, can you relate to these pieces of verse? Can you learn from his words? Will you be spring cleaning your basement anytime soon?

    In the court of Louis XIV, adaptations of Greek tragedies were very popular. This play, heavily influenced by Euripides' Hippolytus, deals with love that violates social taboos. Note: In Racine's work, a new "scene" begins whenever a character enters or exits. Therefore, there are no stage directions, only a list of the characters on stage for each scene. The action is continuous for the entire act.

    Transit Authority - Poems

    The prize-winning poet and author of Partial Eclipse continues his investigation of urban metaphysical pathos in this collection. 
 
Transit Authority is made up of three sequences that mark the early and late junctures of the twentieth century: the first, a series of poems that investigate the early part of the century; the second, meditations based on the 1930s photographs by Berenice Abbott; and the third, “Reckoning,” in which, with spare lyricism, Sanders meditates on where this century has brought us. 
 
Sanders looks with rueful intrigue at a landscape inundated with near misses and has-beens. While it is tempting to turn away from the common predicament, his poems quietly urge us to keep looking. As the poet concludes, though “things aren’t what they should be according to the map . . . we have to press on in search of our bearings.”
