"There is a birth of a new stranger every 4.4 minutes and a death of a familiar one every 9.1 minutes. Everyone here, in this city, is a stranger who has pockets full of unsaid poems-things strangers desire to say to feel connected, and crave to feel in order to be called human again- but instead, hold their tongue...Each secret held deep in our bones is like a thousand never-ending pages of unsaid stories, which create our life's narration- but no matter how disconnected we are, Love, Life, and Loss, are the three common heartstrings that connect us all. When one of these threads begin to fray, it can mean life or death.Follow Word Smith, an attractive young poet as he takes you along on his most life-changing day when he meets three strangers in New York City. Life, a free spirit struck by illness, is terrified to love another stranger in fear that it may be her last. Love, a workaholic, is unexpectedly hit by love on a Sunday train and now must answer one question, "Does true love knock at the most difficult times to test the pure essence of itself?" Loss is a young woman who misses her first love much more than she has ever loved him and wonders if life is even worth living."...each and every one of us are craving to be connected to someone. Someone that will listen, and not speak. Someone who will speak just enough when the time is right, and make our hearts half full again. Someone who can help us feel alive...And then there is me. I am the kind of stranger who wants a "good" conversation even though the word "good" is subjective. I want to listen to how our lives intertwine. This city is cold, and heartless, and I crave something that can resurrect our hearts." ~Word

Dear Stranger, Everything we do in life is for love. Why? I don't know. Maybe love is what keeps us going. Maybe love is the means and ends to this life. Maybe the Universe runs on love. Whatever may be the reason, love is what we all demand, and love is what we all want. But very often, we find ourselves without love. Some of us have lost love, some of us have lost ourselves in love and some of us don't believe in love. And for so many of us, it's worse because we don't feel we deserve to be loved. Right? I know how it feels to feel unloved for many years. I know how difficult it is to find light, hope, and healing amidst the darkness, pain, and suffering. And that is why I'm writing you again. Thirty letters and poems of realizations and lessons about loving yourself, loving others, and loving the world. I am with you and I am rooting for you. Let's do this together? Shall we, my dear stranger? Love and light, A stranger who knows you.

Look, the future is all telepathy and disappointment and pretending we haven't always been winging it. Every day we're the strongest we'll ever be. What doesn't kill you hasn't killed you yet. From Greek mythology to Top 40, Pavlov to Sartre, the space station to the zoo, "Everyone I Love is a Stranger to Someone" collides dark humor and unexpected sweetness.

On page after enigmatic page, Killarney Clary shows us her mastery of the prose poem in this spiritual biography that journeys across the natural landscape while plumbing the dizzying depths of the psyche. Potential Stranger reveals that in the public world we are all called upon to perform: as children, we are expected to find a place in the uniform; as entertainers, to play an exaggerated version of ourselves; and, as explorers, to rest content when we have reached our destination. Precise, prophetic, and spare, Clary reminds us that of all the potential strangers we may meet in our travels, people who forever "remain behind gestures and posture," the first and last of those is always the self.

It might surprise you who’s a fan of poetry — when it meets them where they are. Before he became an award-winning writer and poet, Brian Sonia-Wallace set up a typewriter on the street with a sign that said “Poetry Store” and discovered something surprising: all over America, people want poems. An amateur busker at first, Brian asked countless strangers, “What do you need a poem about?” To his surprise, passersby opened up to share their deepest yearnings, loves, and heartbreaks. Hundreds of them. Then thousands. Around the nation, Brian’s poetry crusade drew countless converts from all walks of life. In The Poetry of Strangers, Brian tells the story of his cross-country journey in a series of heartfelt and insightful essays. From Minnesota to Tennessee, California to North Dakota, Brian discovered that people aren’t so afraid of poetry when it’s telling their stories. In “dying” towns flourish vibrant artistic spirits and fascinating American characters who often pass under the radar, from the Mall of America’s mall walkers to retirees on Amtrak to self-proclaimed witches in Salem. In a time of unprecedented loneliness and isolation, Brian’s journey shows how art can be a vital bridge to community in surprising places. Conventional wisdom says Americans don’t want to talk to each other, but according to this poet-for-hire, everyone is just dying to be heard. Thought-provoking, moving, and eye-opening, The Poetry of Strangers is an unforgettable portrait of America told through the hidden longings of one person at a time, by one of our most important voices today. The fault lines and conflicts which divide us fall away when we remember to look, in every stranger, for poetry.

"Ryan Wilson's unsettling debut collection The Stranger World is filled with poems of menace and promise, surprise and sorrow, tempered by gentle humor and always tuned to a fine music. The long poem 'Authority' reads like a masterpiece of modern horror. The deeply psychological 'Xenia' is a minor miracle of a poem. These pages contain 'real shores across imagined seas . . . where black suns set, ' where the poet meditates on 'that present unity / of absences the living move among.' Each page of The Stranger World yields a new delight. Wilson proves himself a worthy heir to Anthony Hecht with this remarkable, disarming, and genuinely moving book. Seek it out." -- Ernest Hilbert

Dear Stranger, I don't know much about you, but I do know how you feel. You are feeling lost, lonely, and misunderstood. You are tired of pain and suffering. Depression, anxiety, and negativity chase you. You don't know where to find hope and how to heal yourself. Trust me, I have been there myself, and I know it's not easy. So, I am writing these thirty letters and poems to you, to let you know that you are not alone, and that you are understood. You are still cared for. Please read one of these letters every day, and I promise you, together we will get through this. Life is difficult, but not if we take it one day at a time. Trust the universe and never give up. Love and light, A stranger who feels you

A Country Of Strangers written by D. Nurkse and has been published by Knopf this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2022-04-19 with Poetry categories.
In an illuminating collection of selected poems over thirty-five years, one of our most essential American poets casts a clear eye on our politics, our places, and our heart’s hidden stories. D. Nurkse’s immigrant parents met on a boat out of Europe in 1940; he was a child of the generation whose anxieties were forged in the shadow of Hiroshima and the aftermath of WWII. His poems extend that child’s dignified ignorance into an open encounter with the cataclysms of the latter twentieth century and with family structures. Whispers of the old country of Estonia provide the backdrop for the boy’s baseballs, thrown in the fading twilight of the 1950s (“Secretly, I was proudest of my skill / at standing alone in the darkness”). The young man explores sexual passion and the arrival of a child in a young marriage (“We showed her daylight in our cupped hands”), while the mature poet writes of loneliness and community in our cities (“but on the streets / there was no one”), and the urgent need for us to keep expressing our will as citizens. Throughout this matchless career, over eleven books, Nurkse has crafted visceral lines that celebrate the fragility of what simply exists—birdsong, moonrise, illness, water towers—and the complexity of human perception, our stumble forward through it toward understanding.
