»Er verkauft die Erde an die Kyphorer – und rettet sie dadurch ungewollt!« Der Bund von Dhuul-Kyphora hat die Erde überrannt. Ihr Schicksal steht auf Messers Schneide. Wird die Menschheit ausgelöscht? Auf dem Höhepunkt der Ereignisse nach der erfolgreichen kyphorischen Invasion geschieht das Unerwartete: William Maverick ("Der Verräter") springt heimlich via SG von Phönix zum Erdmond und gerät dort in eine Falle der Kyphorer, womit seine Karriere beginnt, die ihn später zur Rechten Hand vom Chef der Besatzer The-Faro machen wird. Gleichzeitig machen sich Clint Fisher und Franco Sabaldi im zerstörten Detroit auf den Weg nach Süden, zu Frascatis ehemaligem Landhaus... ___ DIE HAUPTPERSONEN: William Maverick – Wie schafft es der Verräter, Phönix zu verlassen, trotz strengster Überwachung des Phönix-SG? Denn man muss auf Phönix fürchten, dass die Kyphorer diese letzte Enklave der Menschheit ausfindig machen und genauso überrennen... Clint Fisher – ist nicht nur der ehemalige Sicherheitschef des einstig mächtigen und inzwischen im Zuge der Invasion zerschlagenen Konzerns Mechanics Inc., sondern er hat nichts verlernt, was das eigene Überleben betrifft. Mehr noch: Er hat große Ambitionen, noch wesentlich mehr daraus zu machen. Wird er zum Gegenspieler von Maverick? Franco Sabaldi – als er auf Clint Fisher trifft, steigen nicht nur seine eigenen Chancen. ________________________________________ Urheberrechte am Grundkonzept zu Beginn der Serie STAR GATE - das Original: Uwe Anton, Werner K.

Ashok aatreya Innocent Anarchist

A Long Poem

Poetry

4332 Words
No Age Recommendation

A poem of Protest Ashok Aatreya’s “Innocent Anarchist”, is a poem of ‘protest from all fronts, revivifying the vedic motifs, detracting Pauranic Akhyans, questioning the judgment of the Dharmashtras and finally the long prevailing chaturyoga’s domination of the imperialistic rule of exploitation of the large section of people and suppression of the uprising mass protest. Very much belonging to the traditional super-fluent sect of Tantra family Ashok remained a protester since birth. He has moved from one city to another like a nomad never settling anywhere throughout his career and did not cherish any tradition family value & virtue. “From the day the golden egg came into existence to this day I have seen the wheel moving singing a song Charaiveti-Charaiveti..../for the edification of the masses in that relentless ethical war in meaningless struggle/as the duty bound postman delivers letters/as wounded soldier embraces the motherland when falls/… ‘‘Sorry- I was not a crusader...”. Ashok is a maverick traveler hoping of a feel good factor but the situation is tragic-‘‘From the point of no return/this is the only spirited moment of a maverick traveler/When the entire crowd is busy with politicians and scrubbers of Democracy/when the scriptures and constitution are used as toilet papers/…..the feel good factor becomes a pittance of a poor man.’’….A proxy of the people/ even a traitorous activity/The vanguard losing faith of people/ The poet in Ashok’s long poems intimately feels this transformation in real sense as he writes-‘‘The brass colored beauty nothing to cover on bare bosoms / But a single flower of Mahua pinned/…They come with tags of Ernesto Che and Mao on their hearts”….and so on so forth, ultimately facing the stalk reality when he concludes his poem-‘‘Oh my mother, my son my daughter my wife my comrade/ Why you all were not aware of all this/Still singing songs in admiration/Perhaps you still waiting for the judgment day/Still believing in the stories of fish incarnation/Still assured that lord Shiva would appear again to kill Andhak to bring peace on earth/The Ganges would free sons of Sagar from the curse/’’.

Schizophrenia on Bowen Island

Love for a Deaf Rebel introduces readers to a vivacious Canadian woman who was born into a silent world and with the foundation for schizophrenia. With pathos and nostalgia, the author recounts his roller-coaster ride with Pearl, a vivacious deaf maverick, who, unknown to him, had paranoid schizophrenia. We follow their encounters through actual notes written before Derrick learns sign language; we go on their motorcycle ride to Mexico and Guatemala; we watch as the happy couple moves to Bowen Island, a British Columbia community with just three paved roads. Pearl and the author marry and build their dream home and hobby farm. They encounter one obstacle after another while building their life together as Pearl’s perception of reality—and, crucially, their perception of each other—begins to change. PRESS REVIEWS: The bond that grows between strangers living in two worlds is compellingly described, bringing revelations about prejudice, acceptance, handicaps, and equality. Deafness and schizophrenia are seen through intense love and personal growth that brings a “you are here” feel in a way few memoirs achieve. The role of friends and family is examined as King stands by her while her mental health collapses. Anyone interested in mental illness or in the interactions between deaf and hearing lovers will find the book infused with a passion that makes it a riveting adventure through life and psyche that proves hard to put down.—Midwest Book Review Bookwatch http://donovansliteraryservices.com/june-2021-issue.html#lft King’s powerful memoir is about the difficulty of dealing with a loved one’s mental illness and disability, and how falling in love with a deaf woman changed his life. His love for Pearl is well conveyed in concise, accessible terms that capture the challenges of falling in love with a person who sees the world in a different way. The coverage of the sexual, physical, and psychological abuse that she experienced is sobering. King’s narration strives to authentically capture his feelings in the moment. Rating: 4 out of 5.—Clarion Reviews Foreword https://www.forewordreviews.com/reviews/love-for-a-deaf-rebel/ This candid account of the author’s marriage to a deaf person vividly details their motorcycle adventure to Guatemala and life on Bowen Island. This poignant love story is well written and becomes a platform for facts about the life of deaf people, also delving into issues such as schizophrenia, blindness, and diabetes. Those interested in the stress that disabilities can place on relationships may wish to read this. Rating: Recommended.—The US Review of Books www.theusreview.com/reviews-1/Love-for-a-Deaf-Rebel-by-Derrick-King.html King’s love story and memoir opens when he is approached by Pearl, a charismatic deaf woman. Their chat, scribbled on napkins, flows easily, and friendship blossoms. He learns sign language. They move together to isolated Bowen Island, sharing a life of livestock and ferry rides, where her behavior becomes increasingly erratic. King tells this honest and emotional story in crisp, quick prose, with insights and slight suspense, respecting Pearl’s story right up to its bittersweet finish.—Publisher’s Weekly Booklife booklife.com/project/love-for-a-deaf-rebel-schizophrenia-on-bowen-island-55735 READER COMMENTS: I have been moved in so many ways by your story. You have made me laugh, and you have made me cry. I am in awe and want you to know your story has taken me to places inside of me to remember that nothing lasts and we must cherish things as they are. The light and the dark, the good and the bad, are intertwined. Looking back at our adventures and experiences, we see the truths in our life.—J.P. This book is powerful! I loved it! I read the book three times, and it has been in my thoughts since my first reading. The author put his heart and soul into this book. His telling of the journey taken by Pearl and him is brilliant, heart-wrenching, and insightful. I can’t tell you how much I enjoyed all the characters; I feel like I know them. Thank you so much for writing it and sharing it.—D.G. I couldn’t put this book down. What crazy shit the author went through—he lived the lives of a thousand men!—D.B. This book is fascinating and moving, an exotic love story however contorted the love. New Pearl was there all along, the alter-ego lying in wait to be discovered after the honeymoon. The author truly loved Pearl and was heartbroken by her ultimate failure to recognize his true love; how sad for her indeed! I hope this book goes viral.—P.W. The author has done a masterful job of documenting Pearl’s journey. Schizophrenia is very complicated and not easily understood.—G.G. This book is fascinating. The author is a good writer and my goodness but he has had an eventful life. We have all had our sagas of love lost, and it is unfortunate that each generation has to learn the lessons again with all the heartache.—I.V. [more]
