Download or read book No Jewels written by Tai Allen and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2017-06-12 with total page 48 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No Jewels is the first book from poet, singer & creative director Tai Allen. The chapbook narrates a young life that was loved well, loved wrong and, sometimes, not loved at all. Sadly, this tale is not an aberration or an oddity. There are numerous #NoJewels scenarios in every locale; and, there you find false-love victims who encounter abuse & control. This book of lines, devices, spaces, forms and stanzas hopes to serve them all. The poems speaks of both the deeds and the emergence from them, with admirable self-love to preserve sanity and soul. Ambitious but possible. Purchase the book but do not forget the soundtrack -- Amazon, Apple, Tidal, Bandcamp, Spotify and taiallen.com. The companion is not a reading of the poems over music but an album of soul music inspired by the poems -- songs of revelation and emergence. Tunes that make you dance, nod your head or allow you space to just be.
