May-Day and Other Pieces
"May-Day and Other Pieces" is a collection of poems and articles by Ralph Waldo Emerson, an important American transcendentalist philosopher and essayist. This collection, which came out in the middle of the 1800s, shows Emerson's deep understanding of nature, society, and the human spirit. Emerson's transcendentalist theory, which stresses how humans are connected to the natural world, is reflected in the poem "May-Day," which is about the changing of the seasons and the beginning of a new life. There are also other beautiful pieces in the series in which Emerson writes about things like independence, freedom, and the power of nature to change things. The philosophical depth, beautiful writing, and celebration of the divine nature in both nature and the human soul are what make Emerson's essays and songs in this collection stand out. Emerson wants his readers to think about their own place in the big picture of life by looking at the beauty and meaning in the things around them. "May-Day and Other Pieces" shows Emerson's lasting influence on American literature and thought. It gives readers a glimpse into his transcendentalist vision and shows how he used writing to encourage people to think and find themselves.
Drone
This is a big joke. a 20,000 word joke to be precise. The conceit being 'remove narrative from a novel' and replace it with 'flattened versions' in the form of chapter titles that refer to narratology terminology. As a second tier, I decided to use an Oulipan lipogram-type constraint in which each chapterlet is named after a letter of the English alphabet and does not contain that letter. This is another play on absence. My hope is that the lack of narrative is filled-in by the reader, as I found when I wrote it. Clearly there are protagonists. Although not spoken of directly, there are also the affects of events having taken place. Any implication of story has been generated by chance through the cut-up of archeological reports written by Bethan Bones and other material like lists of adjectives. The lack of the meaning-creating signal of narrative, produces a kind of null, a flatline a drone from which your transcendence may be apparent. Don't forget to laugh.

Reviews Irrepressible, unpredictable, and raucously popular children's poet Kenn Nesbitt was spawned in the same cracked petri dish as Jack Prelutsky, to whom he is the natural heir. (J. Patrick Lewis, US Children's Poet Laureate, author of Please Bury Me in the Library) Kenn Nesbitt wrote a book of poems A funny one I think. And though it's colored black and white Watch it tickle you PINK! (Douglas Florian, author and illustrator of Comets, Stars, the Moon, and Mars: Space Poems and Paintings) Kenn Nesbitt's brain is the clown car of children's poetry. I don't know how they all fit in there, but they keep tumbling out, one after another, each one funnier than the one before it. (Eric Ode, poet and songwriter. Author of When You're a Pirate Dog and Other Pirate Poems) Fans of Kenn Nesbitt will gobble up this new offering, which combines his infallible command of rhyme scheme with the hilarious-yet oddly contemplative-wisdom of a child pondering the world. (Joyce Sidman, author of Swirl by Swirl: Spirals in Nature)
The Elephant Repairman
If your elephant is broken and she needs a quick repair, call the elephant repairman and he'll instantly be there... Here comes Kenn Nesbitt with another trunkful of the whimsical rhythms, lively rhymes, and priceless punchlines that keep kids laughing. The Elephant Repairman delivers seventy new poems about magical toilets, tyrannosaurus teachers, supersonic sloths, pranks to play on parents, and much, much more.
With Harp and Lute
This carefully curated collection of Catholic poems and songs is organized under the following topics: Rhymes and Runes; From Convent Cell and Cloister; Young Voices, Olden Times; In Honor of Mary; Liturgical Sequences; and Psalms and Hymns of Praise. The author includes commentary on each poem and includes a wide variety of poets from across the centuries. Great for recitation and enjoyment! Jennings Thompson says: It is not the purpose of this book to present to the child all of the Church's treasures-rather to open here and there a door, let him hear afar the sound of harp and lute and follow, if he will, the lovely music.
