Lyric poetry has long been regarded as the intensely private, emotional expression of individuals, powerful precisely because it draws readers into personal worlds. But who, exactly, is the "I" in a lyric poem, and how is it created? In Lyric Poetry, Mutlu Blasing argues that the individual in a lyric is only a virtual entity and that lyric poetry takes its power from the public, emotional power of language itself. In the first major new theory of the lyric to be put forward in decades, Blasing proposes that lyric poetry is a public discourse deeply rooted in the mother tongue. She looks to poetic, linguistic, and psychoanalytic theory to help unravel the intricate historical processes that generate speaking subjects, and concludes that lyric forms convey both personal and communal emotional histories in language. Focusing on the work of such diverse twentieth-century American poets as T. S. Eliot, Ezra Pound, Wallace Stevens, and Anne Sexton, Blasing demonstrates the ways that the lyric "I" speaks, from first to last, as a creation of poetic language.

By David Lee Henley contains the compilation of virtually a lifetime of writing. It condenses life in all its many situations into easily relatable compositions. Written in a plain English style the author brings animation to life's most challenging and heartfelt occasions in a way the reader can grasp as a "moment in time" they themselves have lived, or have witnessed in other people's lives. Showing a sense of understanding not often encountered in the flighty poetry of many, the author has a deep and heartfelt grasp of the inner soul in writing these poems. When reading these poems, there will be an applicable understanding of the feelings expressed.Literally every poem has a story to tell. Whether it be the melody unheard, but felt, from the many song lyrics in the first chapter, which express many stories about life in a myriad of situations, or to the many other topics covered, all conveying their "moment" as all consuming. The reader is put into and becomes one with, the "moment".There are several categories of poems to give the reader a "change of pace," as it were. Thus so, allowing for a different subject matter when wanted and the reader can alternate from one subject matter to another seamlessly when a different mood entices them.Using the Table of Content can get readers to a specific area of interest for quick look ups. It is well defined and categorized so anyone can see at a glance what may appeal to them and easily explore and find a certain poem or thought that fits special needs or desires. Every one has a poem in this book that defines or relives an occasion in their lives. So, there is something aimed toward everyone here.The first chapter is where you find all the song lyrics, separated into four categories. The first being the COMEDY lyrics. As levity is always a good start in any situation. In the second category you find SPIRITUAL. These are family based and talking to GOD. The third category being PATRIOTIC have two songs. One about the country and the other about the next terrorist. The fourth and last category being MIXED LOVE AND LOST LOVE THEMES, have many lyrics which the reader will find are heart felt, true life, story themesThe second chapter DIVERSE THOUGHT, contains three categories. POLITICS: Which are in this day, controversial at best. Pick a side. This area contains three statement poems. Some will hate them, some will love them. But all are thought provoking. The next category, AGING: has two poems meant to be satirical. But some may think it is otherwise. The last category is RANDOM THOUGHTS; Which just like its name, is what they are. Covering different subjects The third chapter TRUE LOVE AND DEVOTION; are just what the title implies. These are the "just you and me" scenarios Lots of feel good love expression moments.The fourth chapter LOST LOVE: is as expected, the poems about the sadder side of life. We've all been there. And probably, there are more poems here that we have lived through, or seen others go through, than any want to admit.And lastly, the fifth chapter. The author has added his Fathers song lyrics as an acknowledgement and tribute of and to his contribution to the song writing world.If you harbor a certain feeling or desire to read about something your experiencing or have gone through in the past, this book could possibly give you some solace, or may just have the, "put into words", poem you have been looking for.It is hard to believe you haven't lived one of these poems sometime in your life.

The poems, thought texts and lyrics of this book should make a contribution to recognizing the impossible by developing one's own ideas using one's senses and feelings as a human being to overcome the boundaries that sometimes seem too big. Indeed, it is these limits that help to determine the feeling of life, just as our daily actions are shaped by what we recognize and want to achieve in our life. No life will go by without the feelings that make us human, because feelings are real, just like our perception as humans this day and on the days of our lives. Giving this one expression is a fundamental theme of the texts and the idea behind writing this book.

A trailblazing exploration of the poetic power of popular songs, from Tin Pan Alley to the Beatles to Beyoncé and beyond. Encompassing a century of recorded music, this pathbreaking book reveals the poetic artistry of popular songs. Pop songs are music first. They also comprise the most widely disseminated poetic expression of our time. Adam Bradley traces the song lyric across musical genres from early twentieth-century Delta blues to mid-century rock 'n’ roll to today’s hits. George and Ira Gershwin’s “Fascinating Rhythm.” The Rolling Stones’ “(I Can’t Get No) Satisfaction.” Rihanna’s “Diamonds.” These songs are united in their exacting attention to the craft of language and sound. Bradley shows that pop music is a poetry that must be heard more than read, uncovering the rhythms, rhymes, and metaphors expressed in the singing voice. At once a work of musical interpretation, cultural analysis, literary criticism, and personal storytelling, this book illustrates how words and music come together to produce compelling poetry, often where we least expect it.

From the first Police album, Outlandos D'Amour, through Sacred Love, here are the collected lyrics written by Sting, along with his commentary. “Publishing my lyrics separately from their musical accompaniment is something that I’ve studiously avoided until now. The two, lyrics and music, have always been mutually dependent, in much the same way as a mannequin and a set of clothes are dependent on each other; separate them, and what remains is a naked dummy and a pile of cloth. Nevertheless, the exercise has been an interesting one, seeing perhaps for the first time how successfully the lyrics survive on their own, and inviting the question as to whether song lyrics are in fact poetry or something else entirely. And while I’ve never seriously described myself as a poet, the book in your hands, devoid as it is of any musical notation, looks suspiciously like a book of poems. So it seems I am entering, with some trepidation, the unadorned realm of the poet. I have set out my compositions in the sequence they were written and provided a little background when I thought it might be illuminating. My wares have neither been sorted nor dressed in clothes that do not belong to them; indeed, they have been shorn of the very garments that gave them their shape in the first place. No doubt some of them will perish in the cold cruelty of this new environment, and yet others may prove more resilient and become perhaps more beautiful in their naked state. I can’t predict the outcome, but I have taken this risk knowingly and, while no one in their right mind should ever attempt to set “The Waste Land” to music, in the hopeful words of T. S. Eliot, These fragments I have shored against my ruins.” —Sting, from the Introduction

What sort of thing is a lyric poem? An intense expression of subjective experience? The fictive speech of a specifiable persona? Theory of the Lyric reveals the limitations of these two conceptions of the lyric—the older Romantic model and the modern conception that has come to dominate the study of poetry—both of which neglect what is most striking and compelling in the lyric and falsify the long and rich tradition of the lyric in the West. Jonathan Culler explores alternative conceptions offered by this tradition, such as public discourse made authoritative by its rhythmical structures, and he constructs a more capacious model of the lyric that will help readers appreciate its range of possibilities. “Theory of the Lyric brings Culler’s own earlier, more scattered interventions together with an eclectic selection from others’ work in service to what he identifies as a dominant need of the critical and pedagogical present: turning readers’ attention to lyric poems as verbal events, not fictions of impersonated speech. His fine, nuanced readings of particular poems and kinds of poems are crucial to his arguments. His observations on the workings of aspects of lyric across multiple different structures are the real strength of the book. It is a work of practical criticism that opens speculative vistas for poetics but always returns to poems.” —Elizabeth Helsinger, Critical Theory

I began writing song lyric, then came poetry, and short stories some 40- years-ago when I was 10-years-old. During the sixties in high school, I had the privilege of meeting The Poet Laureate of the United States, Mr. Robert Frost. He spoke with me discussing my poetry and my ideas. He told me to keep writing and reading, and as I continued I would learn so much more and eventually become a published poet. I have continued writing lyrics, poetry, and short stories. I am now 64-years old and I am published. I have always told other poets and writers to keep on writing, and learning about the many different styles of the written arts. The way I see writing poetry is a likeness to a photograph of a moment, a dream, a place, and a thing, a memory good or not so good. Life comes at us in many different ways, sometimes in many different ways at once. Its the situations that arise, the masks some people wear, the way they talk and rub shoulders with everybody. These things make up the poetry I write. When you sit down and look at life youll find its much bigger than just us. This is poetry, lyric writing, short stories from the imagination, journalism, and actually all the arts, they are great love affairs with life. I have found all things good in the written arts, even when Im turned down by an editor. Its all learning and enjoying what you do. So choose a photograph of a moment, a dream, or a situation, and then write about it. Create a picture with words of description. I live a simple life as a Disabled Veteran of the U.S.M.C., and the Vietnam War. However, I am simply who I am, and I dont try to say Im someone else. I am a human being who loves the arts. My message to you all whom read this is KEEP ON WRITING; KEEP ON KEEPING ON.
