Joe King Bücher

When your soul is feeling dark,And you’ve lost your inner spark,Then this book might be for you,Since I’ve felt this feeling, too.When your heart is all but broken,And it’s too hard to be open,Open this, and take a look,Here’s my soul inside a book.Dark – Night – Of – My – SoulEven the most beautiful of skies has to let go of the sunshine each night to experience the darkness, but without that darkness, we cannot appreciate the moon and the stars. Every human being is no exception. Just like the sky, we all go through our dark stages, but without that darkness, we would not appreciate the light in our lives as much.To those of you who are experiencing that darkness from within you right now, I hope my book of rhyming poetry can reach out to you and relate to how you are feeling and bring some light back into your life. Remember, the most amazing of fireworks cannot be appreciated without the darkness, so don’t you ever let go of your inner spark.

Poetry and novels by Charles Bukowski, Allen Ginsberg, Kurt Vonnegut, William S. Burroughs, and others shaped a sharp, steely grey mid-twentieth century America into which any artist in his or her right mind would be afraid to be born. Two generations later, Joe King, who has grown up in this world, populates its bleak, industrialized landscape with Human Ants, featuring bold, sardonic personas who tirelessly try to mean something in a world where they fear insignificance. Although often unapologetically contemporary where it comes to content, King's poems acknowledge their intellectual predecessors; many are occupied by historical and literary figures (Nostradamus, Iago, Mozart, Jean Valjean.) But the laws of the land as portrayed in this twentieth-first century dystopia King has built in Human Ants still manage to present a sense of hope with keen intelligence and satirical humor. This work reasserts the belief that all writers try to keep believing: what is written on the page can become an agent of change.

One city. Two worlds. The King of Aedaron reigns in splendor, while far below, in the streets and alleys of the underworld, a different kind of king emerges. Alys and Dax have always been caught in the middle. Once they fought for love, and their worlds tore them apart. But now as they are forced back together, they must choose whether to fight once again. But for what? And against whom? In the world of Lowside, nothing is as it seems. Even each other.
