  The poems written in this book were composed in over 20 different countries & different cities including Australia, Bali, Brooklyn, Budapest, Colombia, Cyprus, Greece, India, Israel, Istanbul, Los Angeles, Madagascar, Miami, New Zealand, Oklahoma, Portugal, Romania, Sydney, Tbilisi, Thailand, & The Hamptons & Ukraine. 
  I left a piece of my heart in each one of these places that I visited along with leaving a piece of my heart, with every one of those amazing souls that I met & connected with along the way, a lot of who I still know to this day. Those out there know who you are so I don’t need to name names. 
  I’ve been traveling the world for several decades, but I notice this most recent trip felt the most strange & I can’t just blame COVID for this post COVID feeling. See something has just fundamentally changed the whole global vibe is a bit off & I don’t just mean the obvious stuff.  
  Sure there’s the political chaos with right & left becoming increasingly polarized which is absolutely heartbreaking because if we put our differences aside we’d see we have more similarities than differences what I'm really talking about a fundamental change in the individual.  
  We're spending way more time with machines than we are spending with each other & a lot of the time we spend interacting with each other is done through machines instead of directly with each other. 
  It’s as if we are recognizing each other’s existences less & less. 
  On top of this a majority of people including myself seem tired “out of it” directionless & disassociated. Maybe I’m trippin’ but I can’t be imagining all these things, it can’t just be me.  
  So yeah, a lot more to say, but I’m just going to stop here & let the poems contained in this book do the explaining,

  Midnight Cry - A Shooting on...

  Close to midnight on May 17, 1951, four north Alabama lawmen drove to a bootlegger's home to serve an arrest warrant. Before the clock struck twelve, the bootlegger lay dead in front of the house he shared with his wife and eight children, and three of the four officers were also dead. Afterward, a sixteen-year-old boy would face a series of trials that would divide a county and thrust the state of Alabama into the national spotlight. 
   
   
   
  Lesa Carnes Shaul draws on court documents, trial transcripts, newspaper articles, and personal interviews to weave together a rollicking and illuminating tale of murder and revenge. The narrative explores the cultural shifts that occurred after World War II in the United States, the Deep South, and the state of Alabama in particular. 
   
   
   
  Immediately after the war, many southern states stood poised to advance toward a progressive New South yet struggled with the legacy of race and class inequities, retrograde government policies, and a stubborn resistance to change. Sand Mountain represented a kind of "land that time forgot," even as nearby cities like Huntsville and Birmingham sought to claim a place on the national stage in technology, industry, business, and medicine. Through her investigation of this murder trial, Shaul reveals the backwoods justice at play in this isolated area of the American South.

  Power of Now The: Insights on...

  Drawing from Eastern philosophies such as Buddhism, Wallace explores why people feel dissatisfied and discontent. His key argument is that we must let go of our desire for control and instead accept the inherent uncertainty and unpredictability of life. 
  A significant portion of human unhappiness arises from being consumed by thoughts about the future—seeking assurance of a happy life on earth and, in some cases, in an afterlife. Many people turn to religion for this reassurance, believing it provides the answers to life’s uncertainties and promises salvation after death. Others chase material comforts, such as wealth and possessions, hoping these will provide lasting happiness and security. 
  However, neither approach guarantees the fulfillment we seek, as the future is unknowable—a mere abstraction filled with expectations and guesses. Moreover, the pursuit of a pain-free future is inherently flawed. Pleasure and pain are inseparable aspects of the human experience. One cannot exist without the other.

  The Battle of Gettysburg -...

  The Battle of Gettysburg stands as one of the most significant events in the American Civil War. Fought from July 1 to July 3, 1863, it marked a turning point in the conflict, shifting momentum firmly in favor of the Union. It was the largest battle ever fought in North America, involving over 160,000 soldiers and resulting in nearly 50,000 casualties. The immense scale of the battle and the high human cost underscore its importance, but Gettysburg's significance goes beyond just the number of lives lost. It was a critical moment in the war, a pivotal clash that ultimately determined the future direction of the United States. 
  Before Gettysburg, the Confederate Army, led by General Robert E. Lee, had gained significant victories in the Eastern Theater, including the battles of Fredericksburg and Chancellorsville. Lee’s Army of Northern Virginia was emboldened by these successes and was determined to continue its efforts to win independence for the South. In the spring of 1863, Lee decided to take the fight to the North, hoping that a victory on Union soil would weaken Northern morale, pressure the U.S. government for a peace settlement, and gain international recognition for the Confederacy. His strategy was bold but fraught with risk, as it carried the potential to either decisively break the Union or set the stage for a resounding Confederate defeat. 
  On the other side, the Union Army, led by Major General George G. Meade, was in a period of transition. Meade had only recently been appointed to command, replacing General Joseph Hooker. The Union Army had been struggling to achieve decisive victories after a series of failures, and morale was low. However, the Union leadership understood that they could not afford another loss to the Confederacy. Gettysburg would become their test—a chance to halt Lee’s advance and potentially reverse the tide of the war.
