Description: Ms.
Parris began writing poetry at seventeen. At this
juncture, she won her first award on a collegiate
level. She wrote poetry for every poignant moment
in her life for the next thirty-three years.
Assembled into a journal, the book of these poems
is called SOULGASM. The audio-book SOULGASM
consists of four parts of bumping music, with Ms.
Parris reading her book. This CD is sure to excite
its listeners and is a one-of-a-kind- offering.
Ms. Parris'
poetry speaks of surviving drug and sex addiction,
(hippie and beyond), as well as struggling with
physical and mental illness. She gives the
listener a glimpse into the spirit realm of an
ex-fortune-teller. Ms. Parris states that, today,
she is kept by the grace of a loving and merciful
Heavenly Father.
Her poems
range from riveting sensuality to a high degree of
spirituality, as well as the good, bad and ugly.
Ms. Parris hopes that by exposing her own
frailties, someone else who has lived the same
moment, or circumstance, and is presently
struggling with it, will be encouraged to know
that there is hope.
Ms. Parris
states, "Extravagant pain and exquisite joy
are but standard fare at the banquet of
creativity." Ms. Parris' other works can be
found in anthologies in the United Kingdom under
Forward Press with its imprints of Poetry Now,
Anchor Books, and Triumph House. She has been
published in magazines in Canada: Open Minds
Quarterly and Writer's Circle online. She has
been published in India in the anthology Explorers
as well as Taj Mahal Review. She has also been
published in AMAG.
Her poetry
can also be read on poetry websites that feature
various themes including Timbooktu, Redwebz,(under
the name of Haliwa-Saponi) Holistic Junction,
Raven Institute, Subtle Tea,. Sacramento Poetry,
Art & Music, Love Poet's Café, Love Poetry
Café and The World of Idiosyncrasy under
Unpublishable, (a collection).
Alice Parris
AT SEA
Midnight ribbons
stretched out as ornaments
across the fog-horn night.
I am a cast-away aboard
a resplendent magic city.
I brace my land-lover legs;
dance the night rhythms
into afternoon shadows.
