Amp of the Month Amputee Sports Directory Winners ... Home Accept, Adapt, and Excel: A Portrait of Janet I. Buck Janet Buck by Mark Taylor The introduction is finished and a shy, diminutive poet with a permanent smile walks to the podium. Within minutes, her audience is dabbing at eyes and laughing at her self-effacing humor. Watching her go to the front of the auditorium, they have little inkling that she is a leg amputee; her limp hardly noticeable. What they know is that she's a two time Pushcart Poetry Prize nominee, a winner of the H.G. Wells Award for Literary Excellence, and has been featured in hundreds of print and internet journals world wide. Some might even know that in 2000, her poem "Acrylic Thighs" was on display at the United Nations Exhibit Hall in New York City, translated into 5 languages, paired with original artwork, and is now on tour with the "One-Heart, One-World" Exhibit. Most have little clue that they are about to hear one of the giants of the poetry world pour her soul out before them. They will hear her gun blasts of honesty regarding disability, the roles of men and women, and alcoholism. About illness, family strife, and grief.

Janet Buck: Selected poems Poetry Sizes of Sadness At Zeinhom Morgue in ancient Cairo bodies alive are puking on luck, sifting through litter for glowing remains. Forced by fear to lift white sheets, stare at Hell on withered earth, then put death back like cupboards lined with cans of soup. Relatives reach for golden teeth, familiar scars, omnipotent symbols of heartbeats once perhaps they can prove a person was here before the ravaging flame. The goal is to garner a paltry sum, toss coins at starving infancy weeping on the tortured road so they can avoid the slots of their tombs for only a moment of sand. The goal is to find a respectable spot to place the despicable ash. At home, a half a globe away, my neighbors gripe about the wind blowing a pile of leaves into a garden they recently groomed. I race to meet the mailman's truck, sort through stacks of trivia, slice my finger on an ad, and thank the world I have my hands. I take my tongue, use its juice, lick a spot of grenadine blood; I watch as the river resumes. At Zeinhom Morgue in ancient Cairo

Janet Buck: Selected Poems Poetry Passing On George died. At the funeral the priest was speechless. And so his brother said: "George was strange. Wouldn't write with ballpoints pens. Preferred fountain pens. Said they really scratched the paper. Said he could always spill the ink bottle and fill an empty moment." George embarrassed Mother. After they painted the old brick walls of City Hall gray and white, George sanded for 48 hours straight. Spent a month in jail for it. In the white-paint dust on the sidewalk he inscribed: "You ought to know you stupid pricks, It's mortal sin to paint those bricks. Had God wanted 'em seen in white or gray, He'd simply have changed the color of clay." What can I say? George was odd. Didn't like women. Said they flawed his self-sufficiency. Hated school. Said there was only one way to spell principle. In his last dying breath, George uttered: "Bury me with my books. I can read while I’m waiting." Return to Main Submit to nasty.

visual culture shoeless sports bar dust jacket syndrome home/body ... (back page The Gargoyle by Janet I. Buck It's half-past two, sunny as a shiny penny rubbing pockets of the world. A blind man wanders with his stick through carnivals of urban's teeth, paper-clipping sound and sense. Struggle in fortissimo; every meal a rich dessert in menus of this tragedy. His guide will tell him when to cross, lead him down our sewer pipes with pupiled pity for their scent. Gargoyle nesting in the city, plowing through attentive straw. He feels the ground our luckiness can touch and leave without a set of firmer plans. Focus in his fingertips like peeled and fragrant ginger root. His destiny reminding him of all the sharper particles, groping tentacles of sea, where concentration cannot rest. Where tactile isn't summer hammocks blowing in a sugared wind

Featured Art by Teresa White You waltz through the front door, dizzy as a swaying bottle upside down on countertops, hoping to empty the last of our grief. The bath I've drawn grows cold. The bubbles, by now, all flat cocoons. Nothing left but pretty towels on steel racks of promises that leave their sockets as you lean. You dance, I don't. You laugh, I can't. Your arms unfinished bracelets now looking for the loop and hook. I'm cleaning out an old purse. I look in labels of your eyes and realize, no rhyme intended, we expired so many tainted moons ago. I stare at a grimy dime, calculate and then discard how far we've fallen from this dream. Your wink, a sudden lightening bolt and I recall the tree that split, became a thousand razor blades hovering above my wrist. My legs, the last two sticks of gum, hard from neglect, sugar gone

back to Artichokes All the years of pressure cookers rocking on the stove. My belly full of finding ways to dance around your piercing eyes that rested like a robin's eggs on fences leaning in the dawn. Moments split like stale nuts your daughters always gathered up and tried so very hard to save. The cookie dough we made from scratch your mouth would burn when something wasn't done your way. Anger wasn't dialogue or teeter totters working hard. The back and forth of sanding down the lonely nights we spent together in our bed. Back to very bitter back like bookends on a naked shelf. Nothing there to hold our dreams like photos with a broken frame. Artichokes and arguments. Love and steaks were never right. I trimmed the thorns and cooked the leaves in bitter wine until my life was mush. And when the green of little girls was hauled away like wrecks of cars beside the road

"When we’re busy laughing, we often forget that the nature of humor is a vice, one which presses without mercy on the cross skulls of humanity. The respite and relief of comedy can be deceiving: beneath the shade of 'giggle' lies a revealing view of our foibles shining in their raw and naked state before the glass of a bathroom mirror."

Home Fiction Nonfiction Poetry ... News Reefs We Live , a collection of poetry by Janet I. Buck, a widely-published and award-winning writer from the Pacific Northwest. As an amputee, she is well-acquainted with both tragedy and triumph and uses writing as a long white cane on a rocky and courageous path toward self-acceptance. Her images are accessible, moving, and relevant to all readers in the grip of human tragedy. No stones are left unturned, no cliffs too steep to climb. Reefs We Live is a rumble strip of both candor and gratitude. Cornered by fate's challenges, she is always "scratching suffer's fingernails against the promise of the light." As Janet points out, "The cathartic process is like a mouth full of chipped molars. The human tongue is perennially drawn to the rough edges of decay for they are the trumpets of renaissance." To transcend disability, one must contend with itand that she does. Click here to read a sample poem. Also by Janet I.

@import "colright3-1.css"; @import "colright3-1.css"; Scrivener's Pen Volume 3, Issue 1 Jagged Glass ©Janet I. Buck, 2003 Top The Ferry It's a slow boat in a rushed world. As petticoat lace lays its glove, a man thumbs last week's black and white for notices of tombs he'd know— a woman's nipples, raw erasers scouring columns for a job to pay a pyramid of bills. Grass back home is overgrown with Shepherd's Purse. The white picket fence, a toothpick in an olive seed. The moon is out in plain blue sky. That wafer failed to elbow darkness in the ribs. Pictures of a hurricane spread grief like staph but this is just a distant war, someone else's wind to fight. Water is a rocking cradle rubbing chill against the chill. The season she resents is here. Soon the repossessor knocks. A widow turns on blistered heel, the bedsore of her loneliness that proves a promise isn't kept. She'd tape a wish, but nothing holds the curled strip to paper slabs given oceans rolling in. ©Janet I. Buck, 2003

MAIN SEARCH LIBRARY QUOTATIONS ... LITTERMATES Janet Buck The Three Big Pigs With money's vain and silly reach, they bought a brand new Suburban, parked it neatly in an urban nest, killed the weeds, barked the lawn, and went shopping for emus and pot-belly pigs. "They're trainable and couth expressions of bourgeoisie," said bibles of their country club. Now, Mother Nature intervened. You pack three unschooled pigs in the back seat, stop for lunch to fill up the hump, pat their heads, and lock the car then you learn. As a common crow does in the middle of an eagle's hungry path. Swoop, swat, gulp nothing but feathers left in a pillowcase of threadbare clouds. Idiot number one put pig number one on a leash and thought it would hold rather the same as tying down a cyclone with a rope of pearls. The pigs weren't grown, but they knew their mud and obedience class was a children's book with milkshake madness in its lap. While the second pig slept, the third was dreaming up his exit plan a freedom burst through a nose of glass the way all beasts return to their feral states.

MFreeZone: Janet I. Buck The Pouting Rain I have bones that limp a lot. Fidget awkward with deformed. Frantic haste of guarding healthy. Thorns of dreams like knives approaching something close to sides of beef. The steepest stairs were always eyes and homonyms confusing faith with ice-cold wet determination leaking from a garden hose. Disabled hats with thorns attached. The headdress of a pining apple waiting for the ripe of mobile just like chimes that grace the wind. Stasis is my albatross. I have learned from watching you that arm-less, leg-less, stuck in chairs is not a horrid destination I marvel at your peace of mind. The irony bleeds firm respect. I shall die embracing pain. Taking lettuce out of motion makes a sandwich hard to touch. Leaves me nothing but the onion. I would sit in benches parked
