    Rooted in the grit of urban Baltimore and the forests of rural Massachusetts, these poems remind us that life' s tensions and polarities are energies we carry within ourselves.
    
    
    These are poems of witness and commentary, conversation and meditation. They offer moments of close looking, and of looking away; of loving, and of bungled attempts to be more loving. They call us to look long and hard— and generously — at our lives. Written with radiant honesty and fierce tenderness, they suggest a path of inner discovery where mystery awaits us in the ordinary.

This powerful work captures the harrowing events of the 2020 Belarusian revolution through the deeply personal accounts of 16 political prisoners. Each monologue reveals a distinct story, a unique truth, and together they create an unflinching mosaic of resistance, sacrifice, and hope.First presented at Yale University and the Oslo Freedom Forum—the world’s foremost human rights festival—these testimonies come to life through the voices of the Yale School of Drama’s finest actors and prominent intellectuals: historian Timothy Snyder, intellectual history professor Marci Shore, fascism scholar Jason Stanley, and the visionary theatre director Jura Kordonsky. They embody the words of Belarusian heroes, including imprisoned Nobel laureate Ales Bialiatsky, revolutionary icon Maria Kolesnikova, and many others—politicians, journalists, priests, and ordinary citizens—who stood up against the brutal regime of dictator Alexander Lukashenko.This audiobook is not just a performance—it’s a testament to truth that refuses to be silenced. Half of the proceeds will directly support funds aiding political prisoners and their families, making each listen a contribution to justice. Prepare for an emotional journey that will challenge your understanding of freedom—and leave your soul forever changed.

    THE NEW KALISHNIKOVS :: AK-47 - aka Drones 
    This poem is about the new invention in war, of small arms arsenals - The Drone. Coming on the heels of the 
    former mass produced and used small arm the - Kalashnikov rifle. 
    The similarities of the AK and Drones, for widespread use are their cheapness to build relative to their 
    use - cost benefit. Their individual strike and their reliability, and their 
    effectiveness. 
    In all its guises, it represents a new era in remote 'close contact'. 
    The Drone itself being sent from a remote location and controlled at a remote location, 
    but the target being an individual, small group or military vehicle like the Tank. 
    Drones are fast becoming the choice of weapon in the modern age for battlefield contact.

    In Whitby Harbour, in the summer of 1991, something extraordinary happened. A humble pleasure boat set sail for the Arctic, crewed by misfits, pensioners and the vicar for Egton and Grosmont.
    This motley crew was assembled for a daring mission: to erect a plaque honouring the legendary Whitby whaler and explorer Captain William Scoresby Senior on a volcanic island hundreds of miles north of Iceland. The boat was illegal, the crew untrained and the plan... unhinged.
    A joyful, (mostly) true story of British eccentricity and determination, Bea Roberts's play The Whitby Rebels premiered at the Stephen Joseph Theatre, Scarborough, in 2024, directed by Paul Robinson.

    This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
    He did not wear his scarlet coat, 
    For blood and wine are red, 
    And blood and wine were on his hands 
    When they found him with the dead, 
    The poor dead woman whom he loved, 
    And murdered in her bed.
