paperback edition of who knew? collected poetry 1968 to 2008. a collection of most of my first eight poetry books.
another book in the series. five out of six? six out of seven? can't recall now. but it is the expanding poetry that flooded from my brain on those hot dusty dakota plains so long agothis centers about the heady days of the protests of the war in vietnam, cambodia and here at home.i was there somewhat and when i did my copy store edition abbie hoffman died. that is the unifying theme and the reason for the title.has nothing to do with abbie hoffman except circumstance and hubris. much like the tempest in a tea cup regarding Obama and some reformed weatherman today. hopefully my connection is an exercise of intellectual curiosity and not veiled racism.
images and poetry from my experiences around the WTC site before and after september 11, 2001 realized in print september 2011. including some images i took after that day in september.
poetry about family, longing. the turn of a thigh. the long lost friend returning.
Paperback edition of my first novel after ten books of poetry. A tale of life suddenly cut into by disaster. A few minutes where multiple lives are lived or imagined. What happened besides the fire?
what happens when someone from your past finds you in the present. facebook meets my mind and what was and wasn't. what we dreamed what we became. a love story? a memoir? dreams of the past? thoughts and actions taken and/or deferred.
a chance to renew what happened long ago by post cards in the mail. a story told in increments by innocents now older. a story told over time. a story placed in time in abbreviated time as in the limited space of a post card. the twitter of our parents and their parents.

From one of America's most cherished and celebrated poets, a landmark collection of Nikki Giovanni's early work! “Nikki Giovanni is one of our national treasures.”—Gloria Naylor When Nikki Giovanni’s poems first emerged during the Black Arts Movement of the 1960s, she immediately took a place among the most celebrated and controversial artists of our time. More than 50 years later, Giovanni still stands as one of the most commanding, luminous voices to grace America’s political and poetic landscape. This timeless classic brings readers Nikki Giovanni's poems from 1967 to 1983, from her books Black Feeling Black Talk; Black Judgement; Re: Creation; My House; The Women and the Men; Cotton Candy on a Rainy Day; and Those Who Ride the Night Winds. Stirring, provocative, and resonant, these poems heralded the arrival of an indelible literary voice that resounds to this day.
As the foremost translator of thirteenth-century mystic poet Jalal Al-Din Rumi, Coleman Barks reaches a devoted, inspired, and ever-widening international audience. Yet the foundation for Barks's work as a translator is his own significant body of work as a poet. Winter Sky offers a selection from Barks's seven previously published books combined with a group of new poems. Barks's open-hearted, free verse poetry is infused with a joy of the spirit at play with the forms of the world. His journey through life is deeply embedded in his work. The poems spring directly from experience and engage with subjects such as the elation and struggle of having and raising children, grief over the deaths of loved ones, the transition from parent to grandparent, or the changing nature and intensity of desire. Barks's open letter to President Bush, written days before the invasion of Iraq and widely circulated online, is a poetic plea for peace, offering a startling and moving alternative to war. Whether it is the childhood excitement of being named best athlete at summer camp or the early signs of dementia at the age of seventy, Barks uses the personal to convey the universal. The unique flow of a life is here in poems that are rueful, confused, torn, and grateful, but always informed by Barks's transcendent sense of joy and playfulness.
