New Book of Poetry, Reviews, and Essays: "Top Secret Sexual Guidance and...for Married Couples, Divorced Parents, and Singles: One Hundred Popular Sex Twists and Turns and Decoding Intense Sex Dreams"

You can buy a copy of this book 'Top Secret Sexual Guidance and Fertility Tips for Married Couples, Divorced Parents, and Singles: One Hundred Sexual Twists and Turns and Decoding Intense Sex Dreams' at Barnes and Noble as a Nook book.

This is a hot book, sort of a la Zane erotica series, but the only difference is that it is a book of poems, reviews, and short essays on important subjects and topics ranging from dating, mail brides, lonely American and Canadian men and women, falling in love after divorce, the dos and dont's of dating, the new dating scene, whether it is appropriate to hire a dating coach, where to go to meet single parents, the lows of divorce court, infidelity, dumb cheating with smartphones, fertility issues, getting caught sexting while married or in a relationship, narcissism to social media preaching and building instant gratification and a me-generation etc.

Ruth Anne Lovemore and Christopher Luis Charlemagne have done a good job addressing the above mentioned topics and much more in this new book. Using their combined fields of work, psychology, psychiatry, therapy, ABS or behavior management, these two authors got tired or listening to the stories of their close friends and family members who had to go through divorce, separation and heartache. They decide to help them decipher and come to terms with the various facts of their particular cases and move on with their shattered lives. Miss Lovemore and Mr. Charlemagne present and synthesize real stories of real people who want to seek love in the wrong places and from the wrong kind of people.

The authors write about subjects such as how to make a baby, fertility issues, natural fruits and foods that boost sexual drive and may lead to pregnancy. They also show the importance of prayers and connectedness in their quest and pregnancy adventures.

This is a great read for anybody who has ever fallen in love, gotten out of love, or is thinking about dating again or getting married some day.

You will learn things that are not taught in college, business schools and universities. The authors themselves do not rely solely on their Western or pedagogic, didactic knowledge to write this book and make their recommendations. They use the school of hard knocks too.

Poet Laureate Philip Levine's Sample Poems: The Poet Who Influenced and Mentored Many Central Valley Poets

The New World by Philip Levine

A man roams the streets with a basket
of freestone peaches hollering, "Peaches,
peaches, yellow freestone peaches for sale."

My grandfather in his prime could outshout
the Tigers of Wrath or the factory whistles
along the river. Hamtramck hungered

for yellow freestone peaches, downriver
wakened from a dream of work, Zug Island danced
into the bright day glad to be alive.

Full-figured women in their negligees
streamed into the streets from the dark doorways
to demand in Polish or Armenian

the ripened offerings of this new world.
Josef Prisckulnick out of Dubrovitsa
to Detroit by way of Ellis Island

raised himself regally to his full height
of five feet two and transacted until
the fruit was gone into those eager hands.

Thus would there be a letter sent across
an ocean and a continent, and thus
would Sadie waken to the news of wealth

without limit in the bright and distant land,
and thus bags were packed and she set sail
for America. Some of this is true.

The women were gaunt. All day the kids dug
in the back lots searching for anything.
The place was Russia with another name.

Joe was five feet two. Dubrovitsa burned
to gray ashes the west wind carried off,
then Rovno went, then the Dnieper turned to dust.

We sat around the table telling lies
while the late light filled an empty glass.
Bread, onions, the smell of burning butter,

small white potatoes we shared with no one
because the hour was wrong, the guest was late,
and this was Michigan in 1928.

Detroit Grease Shop Poem by Philip Levine

Four bright steel crosses,
universal joints, plucked
out of the burlap sack --
"the heart of the drive train,"
the book says. Stars
on Lemon's wooden palm,
stars that must be capped,
rolled, and anointed,
that have their orders
and their commands as he
has his.

Under the blue
hesitant light another day
at Automotive
in the city of dreams.
We're all here to count
and be counted, Lemon,
Rosie, Eugene, Luis,
and me, too young to know
this is for keeps, pinning
on my apron, rolling up
my sleeves.

The roof leaks
from yesterday's rain,
the waters gather above us
waiting for one mistake.
When a drop falls on Lemon's
corded arm, he looks at it
as though it were something
rare or mysterious
like a drop of water or
a single lucid meteor
fallen slowly from
nowhere and burning on
his skin like a tear.

Philip Levine, Former Fresno State Professor, Named U.S Poet Laureate

Mr. Levine, all of your former students are rejoicing with you! It is time that the country and the world find your works! All along, we have known what kind of work you have produced! Now the secret is out! Enjoy it to the fullest!

In 1995, Philip Levine earned a Pulitzer price for this poem, "The Simple Truth," which was based on his life experiences in Fresno. It includes the portrait of a Polish woman who used to sell produce at the corner of Fruit and Ashlan. It has been reported that the ex-Fresno State student started writing poetry as a teenager in Detroit.
"Levine began writing as a teenager in Detroit. He was inspired by poems about real life in cities and life on the battlefield during World War II.

Levine taught at Fresno State for years. He had many students there. He also taught at other prestigious universities all around the country. Philip Levine taught at Columbia, Brown and New York University. We are saying congratulations to him!

Who said that Fresno could not nurture somebody who would go on to impact the whole country and the world? Besides producing all kinds of fruit and being recognized as the fruit basket of the world, Fresno also grows great poetry. It inspires people to write poems. (Just take a look at the bottom of this page to see some of the Fresno-inspired poetry)

Philip Levine writes about the working class in his poetry. He writes about what he knows. Detroit. Born of Russian-Jewish immigrant parents, Levine saw men and women giving their sweat to be able to eat.

Levine's goal is to engage the mass by taking poetry to them, "I want to bring poetry to people who have no idea how relevant poetry is to their lives,"


What does Professor Levine intend to do with the prize and the attention he is getting on a global basis now?

He jokes that he is going to use his bully pulpit or the spotlight to bring attention to other poets who are not known by poetry readers and the rest of the world!

That is the sign of true altruism. He is thinking about helping others, just like he has done with so many former students at Fresno State, Columbia and anywhere else. He also wants to bring attention to the plight of the working class, the kind of people who people his books of poetry.

Keep writing poetry, Mr. Levine! The U.S. and the rest of the world need to hear from you!
