5-0 out of 5 stars Punch to the Stomach
Was driven to read it cover to cover like a great novel. Many different voices eminating from the vast mind and heart of Mr. Knight. From Hard Rock to Ibu, the songs in this book should be heard by everyone.

5-0 out of 5 stars Amazing
The poem Belly Song is one of the most powerful and beautiful poems I have ever read. I have a recording of Knight reading it, and it is even more stunning when spoken. This is one of my favorite volumes of poetry that I own.

5-0 out of 5 stars Words Thick as Mississippi Mud
fist discovered him as a sophmore in college, in an anthology called" the black poets " then read "belly song" and"the essential etheridge knight..." while some of his poetryrelated to his prision experience, he never allowed his mind to become aprison, so he was always free. you can't go wrong with any of the poems inthis collection; my personal favorites are "the idea ofancestry," and " he sees through stone." with words as thickas mississippi mud, etheridge " sang" america. Give them hell inheaven, dude...

5-0 out of 5 stars a perfect influence....
This man, along with many others, ignited my love for verse and truly showed the humbleness and humility of man. He was born a boy in Mississippi,then became a man of addictions, and then later was raised asa college graduate and award winning author. Poetry can and will berehabilitating, if we let it.

Rest in Peace Brother Etheridge

4-0 out of 5 stars Powerful African-Americana
A haunting collection of poems by the late poet laureate of prison poetry. While most poems conjure up images which capture the plight of the african-amercian male as he struggles with his own sense of purpose and conflicting images and desires, the poems will resonate with all menregardless of their heritage. A beautifull collection from an Americanoriginal. ... Read more

From the supplier: The works of male poets Robert Bly, Ice Cube, and Etheridge Knight can be examined within the context of "loudness." Bly has been an outspoken critic of US culture and an advocate for social change since the 1970s, Ice Cube is one of the most political rappers, and Knight uses grief and fierceness to escape literal and figurative prison cells. There is a dangerous, ambiguous "silence" in the works of these writers masked by their loudness.

5-0 out of 5 stars The Power of Poetry
I first read Etheridge Knight by way of the Before Columbus Foundation American Book Awards Anthology.When I finally got hold of this magnificient book I was floored by the spare style that cut me to the bone....To tht I can add a bit of my own awe and respect for Knight and his poetry.I use his Poems From Prison as a text for creative writing.I have every one of my poetry students write their own poem based upon his "Idea of Ancestry," attempting to show the connections he made with his self, family, and situation.

Quite simply, there is an honesty and power in this book that you cannot escape...

Aside from the poetic value of these poems, for they really are wonderful examples of the varied devices that poets use in their writing, is the wonderful social commentary they make on some very serious issues.Black, White, Hispanic, (whatever) can learn from this book and make connection with most if not all of the poetry within it.

5-0 out of 5 stars A redemptive masterpiece
A searing, aching tribute to suffering, freedom, and redemption. Etheridge Knight takes aim at the center of human frailty -- the heart -- and emerges clutching the message of triumph over the coldest evils of the human soul. Every prospective poet should sit down for a night and read Etheridge Knight's tale of salvation from drugs and prison through the written word. This collection will haunt you, burn you, and endure inside of you. DAN TAPPER ... Read more

For the sake of idenity/this elemental life never happened

•Over there at the Westbury Music Fair/ you had the distinct opportunity to smell Goldie Hawn's breasts/she was tall/you had a girlfriend who the guy who I dissed till he took a bride from the Harmon Family happened to be in love with her and could not understand anything/how he coming from the Ted Mack Camp could be rejected by first me and then your girl. Some folks ju
st want people who aren't attracted to them. And so the story goes that in the ghett where we reside/a parcel of words creates an identity all its' own/you find yourself uptight/a broke dick dog/ and the closest item to scratch your fancy and wail out at is an old matchbook with a few words on it in pencil/strong and defined like a treastise/and the the memory game/I'll play till the death/who do you remember my feathers perking uo at/a watchful eye/an inclemate strike at idenity without money/the kind where you have a penthouse on Park Avenue/with red velvet chairs and a piano in the diningroom/overlooking Central Park. Our scratchpad overlooks Barnabas Hospital/the firewagons screetch beneath our window/and we bead rose petals before dawn with the black sky and a sliver of blue over Inwood,it is this crystal bead which feeds my day/Arthur Avenue with Gepetto standing on the corner in his fur hat shaking his head the way so many elders who have encountered the artists have in their glorydays.

Along th westElongwall up front people sit and sleep/talk about themselves/it blew my mind the first time I saw this couple up against each other talking about love/as if down'n'outs have no energy for this sort. I sat inside the cafeteria at various intervals/the click/clack of dominoes/the food looked so good that I'll prpbably have to eat there sometime. It was so real and quiet/the Cozy Cole dude in his Sunday Serge/portpie hat/one at a time the people nestled in to see the painting/to offer dad a quiet hurrah. The community was accepting and strong/
