Poemas escogidos
by José MedinaEl libro que tienes en tus manos recopila los avatares de una vida desesperada en continua busca de una realidad nunca encontrada. <P><P>El autor describe con cierta crudeza los momentos vividos entre los sueños y la realidad, no siempre sabiendo qué lado tiene más peso en la narración. <P><P> Los momentos oníricos se mezclan con las vivencias de una forma que no es fácil discernir cuál es cuál y que el autor no pretende que se pueda hacer, tal vez, ni él mismo sepa hacerlo. Puede que todo se encuentre sentado en un rincón del desván de su cerebro.

Poemas que as pessoas gostaram
by Jonathan FinchEsse é o segundo livro da série "Poemas que as pessoas gostaram". Os poemas foram previamente publicados principalmente em pequenas revistas. Selecionados por editores independentes, alguns foram muito comentados. Eles são dedicados para pessoas que não se sentem livres e para os expatriados em todo o mundo. Assim como no primeiro volume, os poemas exploram a natureza, a mortalidade, a emoção, a criatividade, a prisão, os desvios e aparelhagem sem fim. Eles trabalham com palavras nos lugares certos, as quais tentam criar sentido numa confusa série de experiências conflitantes, em um mundo onde os pretos, os brancos e os cinzas realmente se misturam entre si e com as cores do nascer e pôr do sol mesmo quando desconcertantemente conflitantes, onde o tempo de um dia é realmente uma miscelânea a ser recriada de forma bela, o poeta espera. Os poemas são divididos em duas partes. A parte A é "O veneno que leva ao suicídio" e a parte B é "Vivendo". A parte A trata dos impulsos suicídas e emoções negativas muito afloradas, enquanto que a parte B lida com a vida "normal".
Poemas tardíos
by Wallace StevensÚltimo poemario de uno de los grandes poetas norteamericanos del siglo XX. Cuando Wallace Stevens murió en 1955, parecía que toda su obra estaba ya publicada y cerrada, pero en realidad quedaban una serie de poemas sueltos, escritos en sus últimos años, que nunca se habían recopilado en libro alguno. Estos Poemas tardíos, traducidos ahora por primera vez íntegramente al castellano, conforman una de las despedidas poéticas más intensas, originales y turbadoras del siglo XX. Lejos de ser una mera dispersión, este libro es el complemento a La roca, en puridad el último poemario de Stevens. Como allí, el poeta escribe cercado por la muerte, enfrentado a su propia imagen espectral. Y lo más extraordinario es que Stevens no se permite la repetición sino que indaga en un nuevo camino y conforma una de las experiencias poéticas más rotundas y osadas de su tiempo. Como ya hiciera en La roca, Daniel Aguirre nos ofrece una versión excelente de estos últimos poemas de Stevens, en los que «el caballo camina hasta casa sin jinete / con la cabeza baja».
Poemas y canciones
by María Elena WalshPoemas y canciones, canciones y poemas. «...pero eso sí: vería con agrado que alguien reconociera en un espejo mi ser a duras penas dibujado. Que alguien compadecido no sé dónde sintiera que mi voz le corresponde.» Poemas que se hacen canción para mejor quedar en el oído y anidar para siempre en la memoria de todos. Canciones que son vidalas, zambas, chamamés, pero también endechas españolas, valses centroeuropeos o danzas del barroco; ritmos asimilados por un oído finísimo y devueltos al mundo en letras tan personales como significativas. Poemas de riguroso lirismo en sus primeros libros, y luego "hechos a mano", "pura conversación a mi manera", como los describió la misma María Elena, subjetivos o colectivos, íntimos, humorísticos, críticos. Poemas y canciones, canciones y poemas. Siempre versos de poeta: delicados, agudos, profundos y humanísimos.

Poemhood: History, Folklore & the Black Experience: A Young Adult Poetry Anthology
by Erica Martin Amber McBride Taylor Byas"A rich, thoughtful anthology exploring centuries of Black poetry." —Kirkus Reviews (starred review)"This deep and complex assemblage of Black poetry culminates in a joyful, painful, and emotionally rich experience." —Publishers Weekly (starred review)"An eclectic mix of Black experiences fills this unmatched anthology that features both modern poets, such as Nikki Giovanni and Ibi Zoboi, and 'the brilliant Black poets who are now ancestors'... A fresh canon for poetry studies."—ALA Booklist (starred review)Starring thirty-seven poets, with contributions from acclaimed authors, including Kwame Alexander, Ibi Zoboi, and Nikki Giovanni, this breathtaking Black YA poetry anthology edited by National Book Award finalist Amber McBride, Taylor Byas, and Erica Martin celebrates Black poetry, folklore, and culture.Come, claim your wings.Lift your life above the earth,return to the land of your father’s birth.What exactly is it to be Black in America?Well, for some, it’s learning how to morph the hatred placed by others into love for oneself; for others, it’s unearthing the strength it takes to continue to hold one’s swagger when multitudinous factors work to make Black lives crumble. For some, it’s gathering around the kitchen table as Grandma tells the story of Anansi the spider, while for others it's grinning from ear to ear while eating auntie’s spectacular 7Up cake.Black experiences and traditions are complex, striking, and vast—they stretch longer than the Nile and are four times as deep—and carry more than just unimaginable pain—there is also joy.Featuring an all-star group of thirty-seven powerful poetic voices, including such luminaries as Kwame Alexander, James Baldwin, Ibi Zoboi, Audre Lorde, Nikki Giovanni, and Gwendolyn Brooks, this riveting anthology depicts the diversity of the Black experience by fostering a conversation about race, faith, heritage, and resilience between fresh poets and the literary ancestors that came before them.Edited by Taylor Byas, Erica Martin, and Coretta Scott King New Talent Award winner Amber McBride, Poemhood will simultaneously highlight the duality and nuance at the crux of so many Black experiences with poetry being the psalm constantly playing.A Junior Library Guild Gold Standard Selection pick!

Poems
by Anne MichaelsPrior to her stunning first novel, Fugitive Pieces, Anne Michaels had already won awards and critical acclaim for two books of poetry: The Weight of Oranges (1986), which won the Commonwealth Prize for the Americas, and Miner's Pond (1991), which received the Canadian Authors Association Award and was short-listed for the Governor General's Award and the Trillium Award. Although they were published separately, these two books, along with Skin Divers, a collection of Michaels's newest work, were written as companion volumes.Poems brings all three books together for the first time, creating for American readers a wonderful introduction to Anne Michaels's poetry. Meditative and insightful, powerful and heart-moving, these are poems that, as Michael Ondaatje has written, "go way beyond games or fashion or politics . . . They represent the human being entire."From the Hardcover edition.
Poems
by C. S. LewisA collection of Lewis's shorter poetry on a wide range of subjects-God and the pagan deities, unicorns and spaceships, nature, love, age, and reason: "Idea poems which reiterate themes known to have occupied Lewis's ingenious and provocative mind" (Clyde S. Kilby, New York Times Book Review). Edited and with a Preface by Walter Hooper.
Poems
by C. S. LewisA repackaged edition of the revered author’s poetry—a collection of verse that exemplifies and celebrates his breadth of knowledge, his wide-ranging interests, both spiritual and earthly, and his never-ending search to find God and understand the mysteries of the world.Known for his fiction and philosophical nonfiction, C. S. Lewis—the great British writer, scholar, lay theologian, broadcaster, Christian apologist, and bestselling author of Mere Christianity, The Screwtape Letters, The Great Divorce, The Chronicles of Narnia, and many other beloved classics—was also an accomplished poet.

Poems
by Charles BaudelaireModern poetry begins with Charles Baudelaire (1821-67), who employed his unequalled technical mastery to create the shadowy, desperately dramatic urban landscape -- populated by the addicted and the damned -- which so compellingly mirrors our modern condition. Deeply though darkly spiritual, titanic in the changes he wrought, Baudelaire looms over all the work, great and small, created in his wake.
Poems
by Cyprian Norwid Danuta BorchardtConsidered a "Christian Socrates" by one critic and a "hieroglyph stylist" by another, Cyprian Norwid was more unanimously recognized, however, as one of the most vital figures in Polish letters whose verse is as idiosyncratic as it is profound. Traveling against the currents of the philosophy of his day, Norwid was a historicist with deep insight into the codes and ripples in the society around him. This engaging collection, selected and translated by Danuta Borchardt, includes many of Norwid¢s revered poems, including Vademecum. True to its Latin summons, "go with me," the epic poem invites the reader to accompany Norwid on a journey though many lands and timeless question, seeking truth. We witness Norwid decrying the tight-fisted city folk of London, befriending Frédéric Chopin - whom he meets during his travels, and lamenting the death of a friend. Lyrical, moving and often biting, this collection gives an evocative glimpse into the world of an extraordinary poet.
Poems
by Edna St. MillayOne of America's most beloved poets, Edna St. Vincent Millay burst onto the literary scene at a very young age and won the Pulitzer Prize for Poetry in 1923. Her passionate lyrics and superbly crafted sonnets have thrilled generations of readers long after the notoriously bohemian lifestyle she led in Greenwich Village in the 1920s ceased to shock them. Millay's refreshing frankness and cynicism and her ardent appetite for life still burn brightly on the page more than half a century after her death.This volume includes the early poems that many consider her best-- "Renascence" and "The Ballad of the Harp Weaver" among them--as well as such often-memorized favorites as "What lips my lips have kissed" and "First Fig" ("My candle burns at both ends . . ."). The poet's most famous verse drama, the one-act antiwar fable Aria da Capo, is included here as well.
Poems
by Elizabeth BishopThis is the definitive edition of the work of one of America's greatest poets, increasingly recognized as one of the greatest English-language poets of the twentieth century, loved by readers and poets alike. Bishop's poems combine humor and sadness, pain and acceptance, and observe nature and lives in perfect miniaturist close-up. The themes central to her poetry are geography and landscape—from New England, where she grew up, to Brazil and Florida, where she later lived—human connection with the natural world, questions of knowledge and perception, and the ability or inability of form to control chaos. <p><p> This new edition offers readers the opportunity to take in, entire, one of the great careers in twentiethcentury poetry.

Poems
by Iain Banks Ken MacLeodIain Banks is celebrated as a novelist and science fiction writer. It is less well known that his first published work was the poem '041', in New Writing Scotland in 1983. Like the poems that appeared within his novels, this was selected from the many he had written between 1973 and 1981.Banks took his poetry seriously and worked on it assiduously, but showed it mostly to friends. He first thought of publishing his poetry late in 2012, though insisted it be a joint collection with his life-long friend Ken MacLeod. The two writers were working on this project when Banks learned of his terminal diagnosis, and continued thereafter. He made his final revisions just days before his death.Readers of Iain Banks' novels will find in the poems a further affirmation of the humane, sceptical and clear-eyed sensibility that informed all his work, shot through as ever with a dry wit that continues to disturb and delight. Ken MacLeod edited and introduces this collection.

Poems
by Li Po Tu FuLi Po (AD 701-62) and Tu Fu (AD 712-70) were devoted friends who are traditionally considered to be among China's greatest poets. Li Po, a legendary carouser, was an itinerant poet whose writing, often dream poems or spirit-journeys, soars to sublime heights in its descriptions of natural scenes and powerful emotions. His sheer escapism and joy is balanced by Tu Fu, who expresses the Confucian virtues of humanity and humility in more autobiographical works that are imbued with great compassion and earthy reality, and shot through with humour. Together these two poets of the T'ang dynasty complement each other so well that they often came to be spoken of as one - 'Li-Tu' - who covers the whole spectrum of human life, experience and feeling.
