DOWNLOAD EBOOKWinner of the 1984 Lenore Marshall Poetry Prize. Originally published in 1983, Miles's Collected Poems received seven awards, including the Lenore Marshall/Nation Poetry Prize, and was one of three finalists for the 1983 Pulitzer Prize in Poetry. A striking consistency -- of tone, of diction, of purpose -- characterizes Miles's life work. It has been a life well spent. --Publisher's Weekly. Miles is a poet of the first rank whose work might well be compared to that of Williams or Moore ... Collected Poems is a treasury of poetic wit and human understanding that belongs in all poetry collections. --Library Journal. Miles's work is one of the finest and most solid bodies of poetry to be found in this country. --A.R. Ammons.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKChosen by the American Library Association as a 2012 Notable Book in Poetry. Beauty is a Verb is a ground-breaking anthology of disability poetry, essays on disability, and writings on the poetics of both. Crip Poetry. Disability Poetry. Poems with Disabilities. This is where poetry and disability intersect, overlap, collide and make peace. " BEAUTY IS A VERB] is going to be one of the defining collections of the 21st century...the discourse between ability, identity & poetry will never be the same." --Ron Silliman, author of In The American Tree "This powerful anthology succeeds at intimately showing...disability through the lenses of poetry. What emerges from the book as a whole is a stunningly diverse array of conceptions of self and other."--Publishers Weekly, starred review From "Beauty and Variations" by Kenny Fries: How else can I quench this thirst? My lips travel down your spine, drink the smoothness of your skin. I am searching for the core: What is beautiful? Who decides? Can the laws of nature be defied? Your body tells me: come close. But beauty distances even as it draws me near. What does my body want from yours? My twisted legs around your neck. You bend me back. Even though you can't give the bones at birth I wasn't given, I let you deep inside. You give me--what? Peeling back my skin, you expose my missing bones. And my heart, long before you came, just as broken. I don't know who to blame. So each night, naked on the bed, my body doesn't want repair, but longs for innocence. If innocent, despite the flaws I wear, I am beautiful. Sheila Black is a poet and children's book writer. In 2012, Poet Laureate Philip Levine chose her as a recipient of the Witter Bynner Fellowship. Disability activist Jennifer Bartlett is a poet and critic with roots in the Language school. Michael Northen is a poet and the editor of Wordgathering: A Journal of Poetics and Disability.
