islands prose remembering whitewater

In Ann's poetry, images become language; a language that directly grips the observer/reader. We come to know by the word and by the image. Like Plato’s cave we get glimpses of light among the shadows.
	–Jane Burns, painter/printmaker

Ann Elizabeth Carson zeros in on some of the often unspoken, but universal, preoccupations of people nearing the end of life's journey. In subtle yet accessible poems she untangles the skeins of her life and transforms trauma into songs celebrating “Lifes long fact –fiction dance”. This volume will give all who have mourned renewed hope and inspiration.

At a young age, Tahlani was banished from the Metkayina clan by the two people she loved, never to return again. Being a hybrid, born of the Metkayina and an Omatikaya avatar, as well as having these terrifying and uncontrollable powers, life was hard for her as she grew up always running from na'vi and sky people out to get her. Many years have passed, and she has finally made a home for herself and her adopted son on an island away from those of the clans and RDA. So what happens when a young na'vi boy is brought to her by Eywa to save from death?What happens when the two people who banish her want her back and are not alone in making sure she stays forever? What will she do when not one, not two, but FIVE na'vi believe her to be their mate? Will she let down her walls, which she has built over the years, and finally accept those who want her heart? Or will she forever be an outcast forever? Jakesully x oc Neytiri x oc Ronal x oc Tonowari x oc Miles Quaritch x oc

Hurt Beyond Repair. by disorderpoetry

Hurt and frightened and no where to turn except for my journal. Curse words being streamed at me and you would have thought I had a father for a sailor. ~E.M.C Many poems focusing on the subject of Mental Illness, that many suffer with and the subject just isn't brought up enough. Poems focusing on a day in the shoes of a person with a mental illness and how some even ordinary simple tasks may seem not so simple to them. There may be some uplifting poems but also raw ones filled with real emotions, things I've experienced. \\ Notes from me the poet: Some aren't all poems I guess you could say but these are my feelings and maybe some of you can relate :) feel free to comment or message me with any questions, feedback or suggestions I greatly appreciate anything!

The Heart of Eywa by shanti849

(WARNING: CONTAINS BLOOD,VIOLENCE, AND SPOILERS FOR AVATAR THE WAY OF THE WATER, SOME EVENTS THAT HAPPEN IN THE MOVIE DONT HAPPEN IN THE BOOK VICE VERSA) A soul, a descendent, a miracle...that is what she was. People described her to be as fierce as Eywa, they describe her of beauty and greatness, cold yet warm. They describe her as the child of Eywa because not only of her connection but alas, her savior complex. She was what nearly every soul inspired to be. A warrior in the making, yet they fail to realize the pain behind it all. After all she was Tulua'Eiru te Afa Reyawo'ite...The heart of Eywa Yet will what she has known change after meeting the Sully family...will their arrival be a gift...or a misfortune? She does not know but what she does know is that she will do ANYTHING to protect her baby brothers, even if it means she had to alter Eywa's decision.

Poetry Book 3 by hannahwashere97

third poem collection. they aren't in any particular order or anything like that, and after 100, there will always be a new one. if you've been here a while, I'm sure you know the drill. now, about the cover. it was a random Thursday, and an old friend and I went to Cottonwood Island Park in PG. this bridge is covered in graffiti and writing, and it has been painted over to cover it up, or boards have been replaced to get rid of it. yet, there's always writing on this bridge. it felt like no matter what, nobody can silence the voices that need to be heard. and I felt that. anyways, please enjoy this chaotic collection of poetry. STARTED: March 2nd, 2021 FINISHED: January 18th, 2022

A Diary of Soul (Unedited Version) by ovokive

Know Thyself - Socrates Have you ever felt like a stranger to yourself? Like you're here, but lost? Just another performing mask in a sea of faces? Another wandering being made of dust? • Finding yourself and healing amidst dark moments of life isn't the easiest experience. This journey from unfamiliarity to reconnecting with authentic self expression is what Onarietta documents in her début poetry book, A Diary of Soul. In each entry, she records new discoveries, old pains, hidden fears, joys, and hope that keeps her going, through poems and poetic prose. A Diary of Soul is a companion book for anyone that seeks to learn how to confront and comfort the dark and hurt parts of themselves. It is a guide to finding yourself and creating an identity beyond negative personal expressions and experiences. • Each part (Being, Reawakening, Refining, and Becoming) represents the ever-reoccurring cycles of growth you experience as a person, even as you learn to accept who you are, discover your potential, and grow into more authentic expressions of Self. || Original Description: A collection of poems and poetic prose. This is somewhat of a memoir. I have written these notes and poems to make you feel hope and dread, seen and heard. I have also written them to make you dream, for I shall not dream alone. I don't have nightmares...but I'm rather good at writing them. I also rant once in a while...or maybe that's what this whole book is about. I hope to sift through your head as you walk through mine.
