Forward by Kimberly Burnham Curating this collection of poetry has been an interesting experience. The poems and the sentiments expressed are both beautiful and profound. What is most interesting perhaps is that the poems have come from all over the world in various forms. Poets everywhere are truly rooting for the survival of people on earth. Some are optimistic while others see the dark underbelly of war and conflict more acutely. Some poets take sides and have a view of how things should be, while others want everyone who is good or innocent to win, to survive, and to love. As we write these poems, there is much need for healing and peace in our world. We hope that these words bring peace and healing to you and your community. Reach out to the poets, to your friends and family. Connect and listen. Try to understand what people who are vastly different from yourself are trying to say. We need everyone’s voice, just as we need everyone’s understanding and compassion.

(USA) 205 Free Download complements of Inner Child Press and Kimberly Burnham A Bit About the Story Before We Begin (Prologue) ‘Darmok and Jalad at Tanagra’ is the most famous Tamarian allegory or phrase. It can be translated into Judeo-Tamarian as ‘Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel and Martin Luther King Jr. marching from Selma to Montgomery.’ Both phrases portray friends from different backgrounds working together to overcome a common problem or challenge. In the Star Trek Universe, the Tamarians speak an allegorical language, which needs context or the backstory to make the meaning clear. Like Yiddish or Judeo-German, which grew out of contact between Hebrew speakers and Germans, Judeo-Tamarian is a new language that has grown from the first interactions between Tamarians and Jews. It breathes new life and meaning into history and is an original way of looking at the old. For Jewish Trekkies: I see you. You are speak my language. I am a longtime Star Trek fan, a convert to Judaism and I geek out on linguistics. For Non-Trekkies or Non-Star Trek fans: There are a few things you will want to know before I tell this story. ▲ Tamarian is a constructed language (conlang) created for the Star Trek or Paramount franchise by Joe Menosky. An allegorical language, it requires knowledge of the story behind the words be understand. Tamarians are a race of people who live on the planet Tama in the Star Trek universe. ▲ Despite it being a constructed language, linguists and academics study Tamarian. Some of those real people are quoted in this book. ▲ The Universal Translator is technology from the Star Trek universe that can translate from any language in the universe into English. It translates word for word, so idioms or Tamarian (a story-based language) are difficult to understand, even if you have a translation of the words. ▲ Captain Jean Luc Picard of the Star ship Enterprise featured in Star Trek the Next Generation first comes in contact with the Tamarians in the famous Darmok episode. ▲ Dathon is the first Tamarian that Captain Picard comes in contact with and together they fight the beast on another planet, El Adrel. ▲ Artok is a Tamarian or a being from Tama, who is first introduced in this story. For Non-Jews: Here are ideas that come up in this story. ▲ Wherever Jews go in the world they communicate with people who speak different languages and sometimes a third language develops. These new languages are often called Judeo-______. For example, when the Jews started moving to Spain in 70 C.E. after the destruction of the second temple in Jerusalem, they came in contact with Spaniards and Judeo-Spanish (Ladino) developed. Yiddish could be described as Judeo-German. These are real languages, currently spoken by humans on earth. ▲ Judeo-Tamarian, like Tamarian, is a constructed language from the mind of the author. ▲ The idea that all Jews in history were at Mount Sinai (in Egypt) for the giving of the Torah, including the 10 Commandments is a real myth that Jews talk about. ▲ Many phrases in Judeo-Tamarian are taken from stories in the Hebrew Bible (Torah, also called the Old Testament). Join Artok, a being from the planet Tama and an earth human Jewish convert, named Kimberly, at the foot of Mount Sinai just before the giving of the Torah, on an adventure through Jewish history including the meaning of Heschel and King and how people from completely different cultures learn from each other about love, inspiration, communication, and how to live better lives. The famous Tamarian metaphor, ‘Darmok and Jalad at Tanagra’ is meaningless without context or the background story. This is just one of the many Tamarian metaphors that have been translated into Judeo-Tamarian like ‘Rebekah with the pitcher at the well.’ Learning a new language can teach us about our own language, culture, and belief systems. You don’t have to be Jewish or a Star Trek fan to enjoy Heschel and King Marching to Montgomery, A Jewish Guide to Judeo-Tamarian Imagery. https://amzn.to/3uulf5l In the Star Trek universe, because of it’s allegorical basis, Tamarian eludes the Universal Translator technology, which translates the phrases word for word but without the story behind the names of places and people, the language is incomprehensible. Based on their shared history and mythology, when Tamarians say “Darmok and Jalad at Tanagra“, they all know that means “cooperation, communication, or friendship as a result of shared struggle, and working together.” “A myth always refers to events alleged to have taken place long ago. But what gives the myth an operational value is that the specific pattern described is timeless; it explains the present and the past as well as the future.” ~ Claude Levi-Strauss, anthropologist. Note: This book has no connection to Star Trek or Paramount. Joe Menosky originally invented the Tamarian language of allusions and metaphors for the Star Trek franchise. Like all languages, Tamarian has changed over time in response to new ideas, contact with new cultures, and technologies. Judeo-Tamarian developed from contact between the children of Tama and the children of Israel.

Are You Part of My Tribe? The Intelligence of Pattern Recognition, An excerpt from No Mistakes!: How You Can Change Adversity into Abundance by Madisyn Taylor, Sunny Dawn Johnston, HeatherAsh Amara, Kimberly Burnham, et al. In 2013, I wrote a personal essay for an anthology, No Mistakes!: How You Can Change Adversity into Abundance What do science fiction writer Isaac Asimov, actress Geena Davis, three-year-old Emmelyn Roettger, and even the animated character Lisa Simpson have in common? Membership in Mensa, which “fosters human intelligence for the benefit of humanity.” Many Mensa questions are based on pattern recognition and determining what does or doesn’t fit. For example: Which body part is the odd one out-cornea, macula, lens, eyes, or iris? Really smart people seem to be saying, “The more you can see the pattern and your place in the pattern-where you fit and how things fit together-the more intelligent you are.” Misdiagnosis or Misperception So how important is literal eyesight and figurative vision in your ability to be successful? Little Emmelyn Roettger’s parents were told she might be autistic. It turned out she just needed glasses, and once they solved that problem she soon became the youngest US member of Mensa. And, by the way, the answer to the question above is: the eyes. The rest are all parts of the whole. Just noticing the pattern, the way in which we are similar and are connected, can bring healing, strengthen the function of your brain, and help you to be more adaptable and intelligent. What do you see when you look at the people around you? It is well into the twenty-first century, and there are still people who want me dead because I have the audacity to love a woman. For some people, that love is a serious lapse in judgment-a mistake that I should regret. But I do not repent the broken path that led me gaily forward to her.

(Coming April 2024)  Summer 2013 when Kimberly Burnham was riding her bicycle across the U.S. and met up with fellow No Mistakes Author Gloria Piantek
Originally published on June 29, 2012. https://imfromdriftwood.com/story/im-from-provo-ut/ Summer vacation at seven years old, the best part of the day is as much ice cream as I want and a can of grandpa’s Fresca, which he always had in the fridge because he was a diabetic. With saccharin instead of sugar, the Fresca is “healthy” for my recuperating body, now missing a set of tonsils, removed the day before. I am resting comfortably on the yellow and brown plaid couch. My parents, younger sister and baby brother are outside having a picnic in Provo’s dry summer heat. They are eating corn on the cob, thickly sliced red beefsteak tomatoes on soft spongy hamburger buns and homemade pickle relish. I am staring at the red brick fireplace in a place that has always felt like home to me. Once when I was ten and could swim really well, I woke in this house. Then in the coolness of the early, early morning, my dad explained photosynthesis so he could stay awake as we drove through Southern Utah, past Blanding, where he was born, meeting my cousins in the red rocks of Lake Powell. I was finally old enough to see the lake because you had to be able to swim to go on trips on my great uncle’s boat. In those moments, my dad never imagined years later writing a letter, a response to his oldest coming out. “I don’t understand or condone, but you are my daughter whose happiness I value. I love you.” I lived, here in my grandparent’s house with my mother, when I was born. That day, my father got a telegram through the U.S. Naval Messaging Services. He was sitting quietly in his compartment lacing his shoes, when a voice shouted down the topside hatch, “Your telegram is here!” The message had arrived a few hours before, but since it was not his ship’s turn for the radio guard, no one woke him as soon as it arrived, as he had instructed every single one of the watch standers to do. Incoming Message: “Provo, Utah 7:10A Girl Weight 7 Lbs doing fine born July 21st 9:30 PM. Congrats, Ace.” He sends back a message carried by Western Union Telegram, his response to his first child, “I am filled with pride and happiness. God keep both of you until I get home. All my love. At Comfleacts Yokosuka, Japan. Twenty-one years later, I am back at my grandparents’ place getting ready to go a few blocks away to the Missionary Training Center, where I spend two months learning Japanese. Just before I put teenage crushes aside and served a year and a half mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Mormons) in the Tokyo North Mission, I am studying with the local women missionaries, where I live outside of Cleveland, Ohio. I want to be around them and admire them. I am like a puppy, hanging on their words and the scent of their perfume. I am electrified by an accidental touch, knowing I will soon be one of them, albeit far, far from home. One of those muggy Ohio nights, standing by my car, saying good night to her, a Mormon missionary after a day of pious preparatory study, I am struggling to see the way clear to “nothing wrong with hugging”. “Of course you can hug me,” she says. But there is too much desire. I do not have innocent thoughts. She does not understand, nor do I but it is the only righteous path I see. “I can’t hug you, because I want to.” A few months later in Japan, my red and white tennis shoes sit ready by the unlocked apartment door, side by side facing outward, where four of us live, in the humid Tokyo evening. Calmly, I stand up and move as if looking for a book to intensify my scripture study. I make my escape into the crowded night where I am not allowed without my companion. Alone, I run past the yakimo man hocking hot orange fleshed sweet potatoes, past the family in flip flops on their way to the public ofuro to bathe. Breathing in the steamy spicy air of soba noodles, I savor my brief autonomy. I run until all the stress has left my body. Releasing the anxiety of a bar set too high, I pass the red Shinto shrine and the still dark bell of Buddhist stone guardians. I run back to my life as a Mormon missionary, back into the predictable uproar of broken rules. A few years later, after I have returned to Provo, to BYU, to complete my degree, my cousin prods, “When are you getting married, already? Any prospects?” She confronts in the August heat of a family reunion. Nearly thirty years old, I say, “I am gay.” Speaking the words to my favorite cousin. My cousin, who when a stranger cuts her off in traffic excuses, “he probably just got the call, his wife is in the hospital having his first son.” She and I shared summers sorting cherries on her father’s farm and running free around Europe, where my family lived. There were cool desert nights in sleeping bags watching shooting stars and times together riding farm cows and Belgian street cars. A childhood full of memories, never imagining a future split open like a ripe red farm tomato by the revelation, “I am gay.” That day, the deep waters of Lake Powell cooling our shoulders. These waters safe for cliff jumping, water skiing and swimming. I have been with a woman for five years. My cousin wants to know, “Are you attracted to me? to my sisters?” “Ewww, stop.” “Do you wish you were a man?” I look at her, loving a woman is not the same as wanting to be a man. She wants to know, “Why are you gay?” She is a mother concerned for her children, for the way they will grow up in a world where, “I am gay.” Years pass, before I venture out, again in a letter to my parents. I used hate easy questions like, “Where are you from?”, “Okay, where were you born?” “Where did you go to school?”, “Where do your parents live?” Straightforward questions are unbearably tricky for me. The answers, the intersection point between my straight-laced Mormon past and my activist lesbian present. The funny thing is, while I was born in Provo, Utah and my parents moved into my grandparent’s newly renovated house after my father retired, I grew up overseas, so there are ways in which it doesn’t feel like home, except in my heart. After my mission, I returned to Provo, to Brigham Young University, so simple cocktail party questions once answered, usually lead to, “Are you Mormon?” I am, five generations back and yes, there were polygamists but then I kiss a woman, while still attending BYU, an LDS / Mormon university.
Kimberly Burnham, Author of the Upcoming Mistaken for a Man, a Story for Anyone Struggling to Feel Comfortable in Their Own Skin, Clothes, and Community
Mistaken for a Man, came out of a series of experiences, one in particular. The campground experience at the beginning of the book changed how I looked at encounters with people who assume that I am male. At first, as the experiences piled up, they became funny stories to tell at parties and a friend suggested that I write them down in November as part of a NanoWriMo challenge. As I wrote, I remembered more and more incidents, some traumatic, some funny, and some thought provoking. I also got in touch with my connection with my teenage trans stepson and how it feels for him to move through the world. The project began to encompass not only funny stories but also ways to look at the impact of our assumptions about identity on many levels. Most of us would not blurt out an assumption about a woman we suspect is pregnant, but we think nothing of saying “Thank you sir” or “How can I help you, sir” or blocking the door to a public restroom, when we don’t know for certain the gender of the person we are talking to. Ultimately, my goal with this memoir is to cause some people to laugh because in many ways these experiences are funny. Other people, I hope will feel not so alone in the world and know that we are human, we make mistakes, our brains love to take short cuts and make assumptions. A third group of people, I hope will read this memoir and change how they move through the world, allowing all of us to say who we are, be who we are and be comfortable in our community.
Mistaken For a Man: A Story for Anyone Struggling to Feel Comfortable in Their Own Skin, Clothes, and Community is a memoir by Kimberly Burnham (she/her) who identifies as a butch lesbian.
The stories span almost 50 years and countries around the world. Kim poignantly conveys her unique response to people mistaking her for a man in bathrooms, restaurants, stores, parties, synagogues, schools, and other places where gender is sometimes relevant, but often not. She occasionally lifts her shirt to correct a mistaken impression but generally struggles with the choice between ignoring people’s comments, hiding or gently or perhaps forcefully correcting people’s mistaken impressions. It is a book that looks forward to a post gender society where the configuration of the body underneath the clothing and how one self-identifies doesn’t influence what bathroom you can use, where you can eat or pray, and most importantly where you feel safe and who you love. The incidents are recounted in an engaging and thought-provoking way with genuine moments of vulnerability, insight, and wisdom. Please contact the author if you are interested in receiving a review copy.
Forward by Kimberly Burnham
No one is immune to climate change. We can close our eyes and not see it. We can write poetry and not do anything about it. We can talk as if it isn’t real, but no one is immune to the effects of air pollution. We all need clean air and food to sustain our body and our dreams. This volume of poetry is meant to inspire action and encourage all to open our eyes, to see the destruction and the solutions. No one is immune to climate change, but it doesn’t affect everyone the same. There are fewer trees in areas of the United States where redlining or segregation took place. One low-income area of Richmond, Virginia has the highest rates of heat-related ambulance calls in the city and the lowest number of trees. Shade and the oxygen trees give off has an impact on quality of life. Planting a tree is a radical action many of us can take. Nelson Henderson said, “The true meaning of life is to plant trees, under whose shade you do not expect to sit.” Plastic pollution has known human health impacts, including cancer, neurological, reproductive, and developmental toxicity, and impairment of the immune system. Plastics offer benefits but they start out as fossil fuels and their production increases greenhouse gases. Look around. What can one person do to decrease the use of plastic? Soil without organic matter is sand. Fresh nutritious fruits and vegetables cannot grow in sand. What can grow in sand needs more water than the same plants grown in soil rich in organic material. “In the last 50 to 100 years, the organic content in the soil has depleted. To replenish the soil, we either need leaves or vegetative matter, or animal waste. We thought we could do everything with the machines - they can plow, and they can do the work that animals and human beings used to do. However, organic content cannot come from the machine. If you take away organic content from soil, it becomes sand. So, right now desertification is one of the major problems,” according to Sadhguru on his solo 100-day long motorcycle ride journey to spread awareness about the “Save Soil” movement. Each of us can compost and add organic material to the soil around us. If a hundred people take up this cause and try to reverse climate change, much can be accomplished. If seven billion of us do just a few small things, everything will change for the better. These poems are clues to how climate change affects people around the globe: the pain and hardship it causes, the beauty that is being lost, and the reasons we should care and act.

The Poetry Posse 2019
The Year of the Poet project was the brain-child of Jamie Bond and William S. Peters, Sr. The original vision was to commit themselves to writing and publishing a book a month for the year of 2014. In further discussion the vision expanded to include the other Gifted & Talented Writers you see below. The objective is to bring the Poetry Community together with the various cross demographic representations found in Gender, Religion, Geography, Culture and Ethnicity. We hope you enjoy the myriad of perspectives represented here. Thank You, Inner Child Press International. Gail Weston Shazor. This is a creative promise ~ my pen will speak to and for the world.

I'm a project life philanthropist, I speak about the non ethical treatment of poor ghetto people. Why? My family was their equal, my great grandmother and great grandfather was poor, my grandmother and grandfather, my mother and father, poverty to my family was a sequel, a traditional Inheritance of the subliminal. I paid attention to the decades of regression, i tried to make change, but when I came to the fork in the road and looked at the signs that read wrong < > right, I chose the left, the wrong direction, because of street life interactions a lot around me met death or incarceration. I failed myself and others. I regret my decisions, I can't reincarnate dead men, but I can give written visions in laymens. I'm back at that fork in the road, instead of it saying wrong or right, I changed it, now it says dead men < > life.

His writings oft times strike a cord with the dormant strings of the reader. His pen the rosined bow drawn across the mind. He comes full-frontal or in the subtlest way, always expressing in a way that stimulate the senses. www.facebook.com/joe.minddancer Caroline 'Ceri Naz' Nazareno born in Anda, Pangasinan known as a ‘poet of peace and friendship’, is a multi-awarded poet, journalist, editor, publicist, linguist, educator, and women’s advocate.

Allen or Jackie Allen, grew up in the Cumberland Mountains of Appalachia. As the next eldest daughter of a coal miner father and a stay at home mother, she was the first in her family to attend and graduate from college. Her siblings, in their own right, are accomplished, though she is the only one, to date, that has discovered the gift of writing. Graduating from Radford University, with a Bachelors of Science degree in Early Education, she taught in both public and private schools. For over a decade she taught private art classes to children both in her home and at a local Art and Framing Shop where she also sold her original soft sculptured Victorian dolls and original christening gowns. She resides in northern Virginia with her husband, taking much needed get-aways to their mountain home near the Blue Ridge Mountains, a place that evokes memories of days spent growing up in the Appalachian Mountains. A lover of hats, she has worn many. Following marriage to her college sweetheart, and as wife, mother, grandmother, teacher, tutor, artist, writer, poet and crafter, she is a lover of art and antiques, surrounding herself, always, with books, seeking to learn more. In 2015 she authored Looking for Rainbows, Poetry, Prose and Art, and in 2017, Dark Side of the Moon.

Poet-In-Residence Position
I am looking for guest blog opportunities and a position as poet-in-residence. My current project is writing dictionary poems using words in different languages for the English word "peace." You can read some of my poems on Poemhunter . As poet-in-residence I would write poems on different words in different languages and broadcast them throughout the social media blogosphere. Each poem would link back to your site where the word or language appeared. I would expect some sort of stipend and a six month to one year placement. Please contact me for details if your organization is interested in having a poet-in-residence to help get your message out. [email protected] 
Buy the print or eBook, review Awakenings then contact Kimberly for a free 20 minute brain health consultation. Email or Phone
