Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - For this collection, I examined more than 30,000 photographs taken over the course of my thirty-year career as an English language professor in Japan. Selecting the right images proved challenging, not only because each photograph needed to inspire one or more haiku poems, but also because it needed to hold personal significance while offering something meaningful or insightful to readers. The result, as reflected in these pages, suggests that our finest moments are often unplanned, improvised, and wonderfully ordinary.…

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Readers expecting conventional lyric poetry may initially find these poems disorienting. They often leap abruptly between images, collide the comic with the tragic, and juxtapose politics with surreal fantasy. That is intentional. Rather than following a straight narrative, they imitate the fragmented rhythm of contemporary consciousness, where news headlines, advertising, memory, dreams, and everyday conversations continually interrupt one another. There are four sections to this book representing the best 20 poems from for volumes from "Junkyard Poetry Volumes 1-4." Volume one "Our Current Distractions" (in this book, Scrapheap 1- Poems from the Landfill of News Events) responds to the news cycle of 2021-from war and environmental destruction to technology, politics, and cultural upheaval. Volume two "Moral Residue" (Scrapheap 2 - Poems on Rusty Social Themes) examines the ethical debris left behind by modern society, exploring subjects ranging from cryptocurrency and celebrity culture to policing, religion, extremism, and everyday life. Volume three "Tin-Plated Poetic Prophecies" (Scrapheap 3 - Tin-Plated Prophecies Under Demolition) imagines possible futures shaped by artificial intelligence, loneliness, economic instability, environmental decline, and technological dependence. Volume 4 "Always Side Eyes with You" (Scrapheap 4 - Poems from the Wrecking Yard of Comedy) turns toward comedy, using surreal humour to explore marriage, politics, social awkwardness, work, and the countless absurdities of ordinary life. Together these four sections create a poetic landscape where surrealism, satire, social criticism, and absurdist comedy collide. This item is printed on demand.

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - This four volume book provides beat poetry relating to news events ('Current Distractions') with themes based on actual events that took place from August to December 2021. These include overwork, the collapse of Afghanistan, police brutality, environmental destruction and imbalance, death by drones, references to Japanese and Chinese business and political practices, Mars Rover (technology), 9/11, Confederate Monument Removals, British politics and Boris Johnson, Facebook renaming and rebranding, Steve Bannon, Donald Trump among many other issues. In volume 2, ('Moral Residue') 50 themes were chosen including travel, technology, health, culture, biology, overpopulation, movie stars, music, nationalism, and many others. In volume 3, ('Tin-Plated Poetic Prophecies') I content that it is important to flip ahead in the script of life to better glimpse what can be- or will be-unfolding before us. While poetry has been used to help us recollect, gain perspective, deepen our empathy, and transcend cultural norms, this collection of poetry provides a means of telescoping into the future on a myriad of themes, events, and problems that society has had to contend with. With my first poem, I point out the fiction of money and of future economic worries as we continually lurch from bond market collapse to real estate bubbles, foreign currency exchange imbalances, deficits, and how we should be counting the real currency in our very experiences and memories. This is what should be truly valued. In this volume, I have also written about issues relating to educational ennui, anti-aging medication, overwork, Prince Harry's Memoirs, loneliness, banned images, and on to memory loss, bots, and much more; essentially, there is something for everyone. In volume 4 ('Always Side Eyes with You--Comedy Poetry') I fold comedy into the poetry, as we all deserve a good laugh. Indeed, in order to survive, we desperately need to laugh. So, I poke and wag my finger at birthday roastings, Chinese astrology, glorifying bad politicians, back-hand compliments, gas-lighting retorting to trolls, red herrings, passing the blame, learning how to praise, critiquing a prima donna, positive ego-boosting accusations, and other 'side-eyed' commentary. Dozens of books and poets are referenced and sourced with various images, words, concepts, ideas, and even perspectives being recycled-blow-torched, even welded-onto these new themes and poems. In short, nothing is wasted.…

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The idea of Junk yard poetry, a form of beat poetry comes out of both the content and method of writing. The main purpose for writing the poems, which are based on current events, is to have a poetic response to the news and events that face us. Some of the themes for this book include the collapse of Afghanistan, police brutality, environmental destruction, death by drones, references to Japanese business and governmental practices, Mars Rover, 9/11, British politics, Facebook, Steve Bannon, among others. The current events that are referenced date from August to December 31, 2021. The sources for these poems, and the images, words, phrases, and concepts, come from a long list of Cuban and American poets. There are several poetic devices that were used for these poems, including end rime, internal rime, alliteration, and tercets. Each poem integrates the news event with poetic language.
