Heart Felt Poems from Jason


Book Description

Jason Bunting's life was changed forever the day he was in a severe car accident, but not in the way most would imagine. His life was changed for the better that day, because his brush with death gave his life a new urgency and meaning. Aware now of how precious each day on this earth is, he began to explore his creative side. Here, in his first anthology of poems, he shares glimpses into his life and his challenges, his experiences and his reactions, and his fears and his hopes. Jason uses poetry as a form of self-expression and therapy. In Heart Felt Poems by Jason, he shares his thoughts on love, attraction, depression, joy, curiosity, and vulnerability. One young man's pain is transformed into heartfelt messages to himself and those he cares about in this life. Within his words is the self-portrait of a young soul as it emerged from darkness into a tentative new day.




Felt: Poems


Book Description

Winner of the Bobbitt National Prize for Poetry from the Library of Congress, chosen by the Los Angeles Times as one of the Best Books of 2001, and as a finalist for the Los Angeles Times Book Award. In this groundbreaking collection, Alice Fulton weds her celebrated linguistic freshness to a fierce emotional depth. Felt—a fabric made of tangled fibers—becomes a metaphor for the interweavings of humans, animals, and planet. But Felt is also the past tense of "feel." This is a book of emotions both ordinary and untoward: the shadings of humiliation, obsession, love, and loneliness—as well as states so subtle they have yet to be named. Reticent and passionate, elliptical yet available, Fulton's poems consider flaws and failure, touching and not touching. They are fascinated with proximity: the painter's closeness to the canvas, the human kinship with animals, the fan's nearness to the star. Privacy, the opening and closing of doors, is at the heart of these poems that sing the forms of solitude-the meanings and feelings of virginity, the single-mindedness of fetishism, the tragedy of suicide. Rather than accept the world as given, Fulton encounters invisible assumptions with magnitude and grace. Hers is a poetry of inconvenient knowledge, in which the surprises of enlightenment can be cruel as well as kind. Felt, a deeply imagined work, at once visceral and cerebral, illuminates the possibilities of twenty-first century poetry.
