I’ve never seen anyone at a public pool with a memorable enough body, good or bad, that I think about it ever again. If this line sounds familiar, it’s because you’ve heard it in the background of thousands of videos on social media—a humbling reminder from poet and radio personality Josie Balka that what’s important in our lives now isn’t necessarily what’s important to us in the long run. I Hope You Remember, Josie’s first book of poetry, includes this poem and over eighty others, some previously published and others never shared before.

The Ancient Greeks recognized seven different types of love.

Marcus's poems will fill your heart, enrich your soul, and challenge your preconceptions and understanding of love.

In his haunting and fearless debut, Ocean Vuong walks a tightrope of historic and personal violences, creating an interrogation of the American body as a borderless space of both failure and triumph. At once vulnerable and redemptive, dreamlike and visceral, compassionate and unforgiving, these poems seek a myriad existence without forgetting the prerequisite of self-preservation in a world bent on extinguishing its othered voices. Vuong's poems show, through breath, cadence, and unrepentant enthrallment, that a gentle palm on a chest can calm the most necessary of hungers.

From a young age Kerouac was a spiritual thinker and questioner, and he always considered himself a spiritual writer. Buddhism gave more meaning to Jack’s work as a writer: he was working not for personal accomplishment and glory but for human betterment. And Buddhism justified his lifestyle: with its vision of the material world as empty and illusory, he was free to do what he wanted.

Si hay un hombre que todos los argentinos conocen es el gaucho Martín Fierro. Muchos menos conocen a su autor, el señorito José Hernández, y a menudo lo que saben de él está lejos de la verdad. En estas páginas su personaje, Martín Fierro, furioso y agradecido, rencoroso y querendón, nos cuenta la vida de su creador con los mismos versos gauchescos que lo hicieron famoso. Pero esta vez Fierro no canta.

Every day, we hear a version of this message, and so we search and strive. Yet none of the places we’ve been told to look—our careers, relationships, even dreams that come true—seem to give lasting satisfaction. After twenty years as a professional writer of other people’s truth, Anna Mitchael found herself at the same crossroads. Tired of reaching and wondering where it was all headed, she began asking questions.

A memoir in verse Errol Hess, the son of a West Virginia factory worker, moved 300 miles south in the early 1970s to begin farming with his new wife. Together, they raised tobacco (to sell), vegetables (to eat), and a crop of healthy children. Like many members of the back-to-the-land movement, the family fled the poverty of small-holding and returned to town a dozen years later. But their lives and the farms soil were both left a little richer for their time spent listening to the land.

William Blake's first biographer, Alexander Gilchrist, wanted to believe that Blake was a "new kind of man; and hence his was a new kind of art, and a new kind of poetry." However, what sets William Blake apart as a great poet and artist was not that he was so "new," but that he was so "old." He was a part of a mytho-poetic and Vatic tradition as old as poetry itself. Blake was heir to a mytho-poetic tradition that can be traced back to the very foundations of human thought and speech. The extraordinary in William Blake was not the "man," but his Vision and how he expressed it. But most (if...

I want to be loved for my truths, but I worry that they might be too heavy, for anyone to bear. I long for the world to see me, but I’m afraid it might not like what it finds. I seek understanding, but fear the cost of being fully known.

"'Now the Holy Thing is among us once again. So fast, brother, and pray. Tell the others to fast and pray, that perchance the vision may come to you too—and to them—and so the world may be healed.'" This book is a novelisation of The Holy Grail, Book 8 of Tennyson's Idylls of the King. In this account of the Grail legend, Percivale, having retired to a monastery, recounts to a fellow monk his experience of the Grail quest. This prose version is intended to make the poem more accessible to the general reader and students of the poem, as well as being a good read in itself.
