  The Wolf

  Mike Blake

  • 0

  The Wolf poem :: was inspired by William Blake's - 'The Tyger'. 
  It has the same regular form & meter as The Tyger. 
  With tempo and stanza (of the quatrain type), and is about one single animal in the natural world. 
  Where it differs from William Blake's poem is that the Poem Tyger has more religious connotations, not surprising for the times in which it was written. 
  Whereas 'The Wolf' written by myself, has more of Natures influences. 
  It's also about the possible demise totally of the Wolf through man, and a warning of this. 
  As we take care of The Wolf and other similiar 'top predator' animals, 
  so we automatically take care of the natural habitat that they live in - something that is increasing in peoples consciousness today.

  David Copperfield

  David Copperfield is a novel by Charles Dickens, first published in serial form between 1849 and 1850 and later as a complete book in 1850. It is widely regarded as one of Dickens's most beloved works and is often considered semi-autobiographical, reflecting many aspects of the author's own life. The story is narrated by the titular character, David Copperfield, who recounts his journey from childhood to adulthood. 
  David Copperfield is born in Blunderstone, Suffolk, six months after his father's death. His early years are spent in relative happiness with his mother, Clara, and their devoted housekeeper, Peggotty. This idyllic childhood is shattered when Clara marries the cruel Mr. Edward Murdstone, who imposes a strict regime on the household alongside his equally harsh sister. After a series of abusive encounters, David is sent away to Salem House, a boarding school run by the sadistic Mr. Creakle.

  Selected Poems of Calvin C Hernton

  Calvin C. Hernton

  This volume promises to be the definitive guide to Calvin C. Hernton's unparalleled poetic career, re-introducing readers to a major voice in American poetry. Hernton was a cofounder of the Umbra Poets Workshop; a participant in the Black Arts Movement, R. D. Laing's Kingsley Hall, and the Antiuniversity of London; and a teacher at Oberlin College who counted amongst his friends bell hooks, Toni Morrison, and Odetta. As a pioneer in the field of Black Studies, Hernton developed a theoretical and practical pedagogy with lasting impact on generations of students. He may be best known as an anti-sexist sociologist, following in the footsteps of W.E.B. Du Bois, but Hernton viewed himself, above all, as a poet. This volume includes a generous selection of Hernton's previously published poems, from classics like the often anthologized "The Distant Drum" to the visionary epic The Coming of Chronos to the House of Nightsong, reprinted in full for the first time since 1964, alongside uncollected and unpublished material from the Calvin C. Hernton papers at Ohio University, a new critical introduction, and detailed notes, chronology, and bibliography.[sample poem]The Distant DrumI am not a metaphor or symbol.This you hear is not the wind in the trees.Nor a cat being maimed in the street.I am being maimed in the streetIt is I who weep, laugh, feel pain or joy.Speak this because I exist.This is my voiceThese words are my words, my mouthSpeaks them, my hand writes.I am a poet.It is my fist you hear beatingAgainst your ear.

  Maps You Can't Make

  Trauma takes up real space within us, and it can be so difficult to hold. How do we access that place of longing and loss, of fragmented memory and grief? How do we carry it as we walk in the world? There’s no map for this, no clear path through the internal landscape it reshapes, no easy way to make meaning of our lives in that disoriented state. Mariella Saavedra Carquin confronts hard truths in this powerful debut collection, pushing through layered complexities of immigration, race, and identity to find a way forward.
