Carlos Cort騷 Koyokuikatl was an artist, poet, photographer, muralist, columnist, labor and anti-war activist. His contributions as a visual artist are found in linoleum and wood printing block posters as well as his scratchboard images are part of the permanent collection of the National Museum of Mexican Art in Chicago. Many of his drawings also appeared in the Industrial Workers of the World monthly newspaper and in books such as Pablo Cruz & the American Dream, Cold Chicago: Play, and in his own books, De Kansas a Califas & Back to Chicago, Crystal-Gazing the Amber Fluid & other Wobbly poems, and Where Are Voices? The poems included in this collection reach from the late 1950's to 2000, reflecting his abilities in American Haiku, epic accounts, elegiac reflections, protest poems, love poems, and satirical pieces. He worked mainly in English but there's evidence of his own Spanish-language skills. Cort騷 also explored the traditional Mexican language Nahuatl in his later years which are also included in this collection. His artwork is held at the Museum of Modern Art in New York, Smithsonian and galleries in the USA and Europe. The name Koyokuikatl meaning "coyote's song" in Nahuatl first came to him while he was serving his 18-months sentence as a World War 2 conscientious objector and only ceremoniously adopted in 1982 in a Mexica ritual. He was born in Milwaukee, Wisconsin on August 13, 1923, and passed away from natural causes at home in Chicago on January 19, 2005.

Most authentic book compilation on the Oregon Trail I ever read. The way the diaries are brought to life from over 170 years ago is a remarkable achievement. Top book of year so far for me for today June 01, 2024 review Candice
This author is a breathe of fresh air in a world of lies and coverups. He brings ancient writings and new science to bring light to mankind. In this amazing work, the well known plato stories from antiquity are now put alongside this new discovery of tablets from beginning of time. This is the most complete explanation of Atlantis every brought to the public. Shame on the governments of Egypt and the world for hiding WHO BUILT THE PHYRAMIDS OF GIZA AND THE SPHINX. Once I read this book I knew why they hid this knowledge. They don't want a population to know how great the world used to be compared to know.
Randomly stumbled upon this book and I am shocked that I haven’t heard about it before. It’s hands down the best story I’ve read in years. People need to read this book. It needs to be turned into a book. This story is just plain awsome. M
This soulful book of personal poetry brought me into the past and into the present---and into my heart.
Read the first book and this 2nd one did not disappoint! Loved every chapter. More please!
