A collection of poems about life, death, and grief...Losing those around us can come as a shock or sometimes we expect it, but processing it is not easy. Through the written word, I have tried to give my take and personal experience on it. Maybe in this book, you will find the comfort and peace you have been looking for. or at the very least, someone who can relate.

Poems that amplify the voices and souls of black men at various stages of their lives, men who always feel as if they are "C2D," close to death.

The life of Rilke’s work is in its words, and this book attends closely to the life unfolding in Rilke’s words over the course of his career. What is a poem, and how does it act upon us as we read? What does reading involve? These are questions of the greatest interest to Rilke, who addresses them in several poems and for whom the experience of reading affords an interaction with the world—a recalibration of our ways of attending to it—which sets it apart from other kinds of experience. Rilke’s work is often approached in periods—he is the author of the New Poems, or of Malte, or of the Duino Elegies, or of the Sonnets to Orpheus—as if its different phases had little to do with one another, but in fact his writing is a concentrated and evolving exploration of the possibilities of poetic language, a working of the life of words into precise and exacting forms in dialogue with the texture of the world. The Life of the Work traces that trajectory in a series of close readings that do not neglect the lesser-known, uncollected verse and the poems in French, as well as Rilke’s activity as a translator of Michelangelo, Shakespeare, Barrett Browning, Mallarmé, and Valéry, among many others. These encounters were part of Rilke’s engagement with the world, his way of extending the reach of his language to get it ever closer to the ungraspable movements, the risk and promise, of life itself. One of his best-known poems ends with the words ‘You must change your life’, an injunction that animates the whole of his work.

This book is meant to remember and forget: the love and the sadness, the dead and the alive. So it is appropriately titled, after a poem in this collection, 'Requiem', and another with light and wry a touch, 'Ale'. It is a collection of the most memorable poems you will ever read: quaint and medieval, Gothic and baroque, modern and lilting, lyrical. A most delightful collection of sonnets, Shakespearean, petrarchan, and others; ottava rima (stanzas that use an eight-line rhyme sequence, with eleven or ten syllables in each line); modernist poems of the sort that T.S. Eliot wrote, on the one hand, and William Butler Yeats, on the other. All poems, even those in free verse, are in meter, with "free verse" in T.S. Eliot's sense of the term. As an "extra" there are numerous haikus, as well, and a poem or two in blank verse. A collection that brings to mind the contrast of death and life that we sometimes sense in our minds: Requiem and Ale.
