Story
woke up no light is a Black girl’s saunter turned to a woman’s defiant strut. These are the hymns of a new generation of poetry. Young, alive, yearning. A mouth swung open and ready to devour. A quest for home in a world that knows only wasteland and wanting.

Story
Begin with a Question explores how the life of faith is a continuous voyage, launched anew each bright day of the spirit or dark night of the soul. This is a book of contemplation and motion, a journey—often in stops and starts—toward the Divine, a pilgrimage paved with prayer, praise, pause, penitence, and (of course) questions. Urgent and universal, joyful or joyless, tinged with doubt or rinsed with hope, here are honest queries that probe, lift, and lead to discovery.

Story
It’s never too late, right? Did someone say it couldn’t be done? At age seventy-five, with no email, no Wi-Fi or computer, and only pencil and paper as his tools of the trade, from his one-bedroom apartment in Troy, New York, Mīchol started creating poems. Modern Poems seemed to take shape one poem at a time. Mīchol let his creativity flow as he crafted poems about holidays, seasons, and other themes. Putting his heart and mind to work, he discovered a poet living inside him, screaming to come out.

Sometimes wistful, melancholic, poignant, at times the author’s wry sense of fun and humour shines through. When he arrived in Sydney in the 1960s, Bigambul man, Uncle Wes, was not allowed to tell his stories at schools.
