  My Mind My Hand Writes 
  By R. Omar Casimire 
  My Mind My Hand Writes is more than a poetry collection—it is a living archive of consciousness, memory, ancestry, spirit, travel, loss, resilience, and revelation. Spanning more than four decades of writing, this body of work gathers over 140 poems composed from the late 1990s through 2025, forming a deeply personal yet historically resonant literary journey. Each poem stands alone as a moment of reflection, but together they form a unified testament to a life lived with awareness—of history, of family, of faith, of injustice, and of love. 
  At its core, My Mind My Hand Writes is a declaration of creative immediacy. The title itself speaks to the unfiltered connection between thought and expression—the sacred instant when consciousness flows directly into language. There is little separation between reflection and inscription. The mind conceives; the hand records. What results is poetry that feels intimate, spontaneous, and honest

  Blood Orange

  Yaffa AS

  "Blood Orange" is a highly emotional, important and timely poetry collection by Mx. Yaffa (They/She), a trans Muslim displaced Indigenous Palestinian. Their writings probe the yearning for home, belonging, mental health, queerness, transness, and other dimensions of marginalization while nurturing dreams of utopia against the background of ongoing displacement and genocide of indigenous Palestinians. 
  The collection came quickly and relentlessly, drawn from the depths of the author's soul during a movement for a free Palestine and aligned with a solar eclipse. It beckons readers to re-evaluate what is perceived as immutable and to imagine pathways toward Utopia.  
  "Blood Orange"- the title an homage to the Yaffa Oranges (which were appropriated first by the British and subsequently by Israel) refers to the author themselves, their homeland and blood spilled in the name of settler colonialism. 
  This highly charged and cathartic body of work confronts the anguish and loss inflicted by genocide but also embraces a vision of a world free of it. The poems within "Blood Orange" were a means of working through and processing the grief caused by recent events and serve as an act of protest and defiance against settler colonialism as a whole.

  When your faith is destroyed, to what do you turn? Reason? Absolution? Or do you continue on believing? These are the clashing personalities of the three men of "The Resurrection," watching guard for the disciples after Jesus' crucifixion, all struggling with their preconceived notions of the world after his death, and are precarious, yet ready, as to what to do next. 
  Can man be satisfied in Heaven? If Heaven is brought down to earth so freely, will man reject it for want of freedom? These are the themes put forward in "Calvary" through the mouths of Lazarus and Judas, the man who could not be beholden to death, and the man who would not be beholden to God. ... And yet, their desires laid upon cross are all too human... all too understandable.

  Come  and marvel at how life at large can be encapsulated into a microcosm in  the form of poetic license.  Let this book be your companion when seeking to have some me-time and to chill out in your own chosen surroundings. 
   
  Or,  discuss Mallory’s poems in more depth with others. Poetry can truly dazzle and serves as an equal alternative to the excitement of reading novels. 
   
  The  beauty of poetry is the choice given to read any extract to another appropriate age group that can introduce them into this wonderful genre of literature. Similar  to music, the titles stay with the reader and will, in virtual speak, stamp its date and location to induce its messages across the wide spectrum of what everyone likes to imagine or likes to encounter. 
   
  Poetry is the perfect treat or gift for anyone who would like to travel on a magic carpet away from the madding crowd. Soothe yourself instead - in contrast to an edge of seat thriller novel or film. 
   
  Enjoy!
