c a r v e d, Kate Mapother's first collection of poetry, explores life and loss in its varied dimensions. At once gut-wrenching and hopeful, these poems take the listener by the hand and heart through themes of sexuality, God, love, grief, and family. The writing is rich in imagery and substance, leaving no doubt in the listener's mind about Mapother's ability to plumb the depths of hard emotion, then land you somewhere soft. These poems don't pretend to know. They simply witness.

Whatever happens, happens. Right? Whoever overthinks also overloves. Right? Just let it go. Right? Just stop doing it. Right? How? All these statements and no understanding of how to do it. It doesn't happen overnight, but does it even happen at all? Do I get too busy to remember? Do I become too numb to feel? How? How do I just stop? Just go, get over, and pretend? Everything happens for a reason. Right? Everything makes you stronger. Right? Wrong. I was weak. I was down. I was broken. I was lost. I made the choice to be stronger and rebuild again. I guess it is what it is. Right?

In these poems of holding and letting go, Mapother isn't afraid to plumb the depths. Just when you think you can't breathe, she breaks the surface, with you in her gentle hands. In her own words, each line is an homage to the scars that form us.

Wenn die erfolgreichen Kämpfe und schmerzhaften Niederlagen des Lebens (im Alter so um die 50 - drei links, drei rechts, drei fallen lassen) auf einander treffen, Scheidungen abgeschlossen wurden, große und kleine Kinder aus frühen oder mittleren Beziehungen ihre eigenen Wege gehen, mehrere Karrieren bereits weggearbeitet worden sind, und es eigentlich nichts mehr zu beweisen gibt, und dann ein ordentlicher Schluck Hormone dazu kommt.

El libro del Génesis habla de una escalera "apoyada en la tierra" cuyo "extremo toca el cielo" y de la cual suben y descienden los ángeles. Este subir de la tierra y bajar del cielo se le presenta al autor, tras la muerte repentina de su hijo, como una vía doble y simultánea para poder aliviar su dolor y acceder a la sabiduría. Paralelamente esta imagen le sugiere diferentes formas de pensar, una clara y sencilla, que poco a poco se va haciendo poesía, y otra, emocional, compleja e incierta, que se va convirtiendo en filosofía.

With over 40 poems and lyrics, Corey Toomey explores the complex themes of loss and abandonment with his collection Farewell to Giants. Highlights include the opening "Treasure Girl", the epic "Athena's Dream", and the climactic title poem.

When I was in the fourth grade, we had a map of Vietnam on our kitchen wall. When my mother received an airmail letter, she would walk to the map and move one of the stickpins to a new location to see if one of her brothers was in harm’s way in some new hot spot or battle. I spent a lot of time worrying about that map. I had five uncles in Southeast Asia during the Vietnam War. This is a book about going off to war, a book about coming back home, and a book about those who are left behind. I dedicate this book to those voices, my family, and every voice calling out at times of war.

From the crushing comfort of the womb-dark ocean, the poems in Francesca Marais' Emerge rise to the surface and breathe deeply. Untangling the tentacles of family and romance and imagination, the poet carries the listener along on a journey toward self-love and acceptance. Salt of tears, of stinging wounds, of breaking waves—to know the self requires all of these. There is ache here, but also nourishment. Emerge shows us how to stop holding our breath, how to see our own reflection in the ocean's blue eyes.

The words you are about to hear have been ongoing for many, many years. They are not written to make you feel bad for me; they are written more as a lesson to myself. The words were never prethought but always came from some place within me forcibly picking up a pen and putting their utterances down at once. It was as if it was a command from the very depths of me, a strength in me that has always been there. Someone once said it was a goddess in me, the strong goddess who drives us on till we see the truth.
