The book begins with the development, functioning and processing of the subconscious, which at birth is just an empty system. At birth we start recording through our 5 senses everything we experience into a sensory Picture (visually dominated) format. During our first 6 years we record everything without question. At the end of those six years we stop recording Pictures with emotional material. Those Pictures then form into a filtering system (Psychic Lens) that allow intellectual material to continue to be Pictured. This process of what we picture is what makes us all different. Those pictures we've accumulated unquestioned unfortunately have within them a lot of assumptions and falsehoods. Those youthful pictures are called up later in our lives to respond to what we think and believe we are experiencing. Upon using a dysfunctional picture to respond to some experience they cannot achieve the validational need our E-Drive demands. The pictures we recorded are with us 24/7, birth to death awake or asleep, what we like, need, want, desire, prejudice, etc. In order to take control of your emotional life you need to be aware of their existence and see them consciously. Only then can you make the necessary changes to make them functional (achieve validation). It teaches each reader how to do all this in two stages. First to understand how their mind functions subconsciously through chapters such as: The track of pain, The Psychic Lens, inner voices, what's behind a word and more. The second stage is comprised of 7 (chapters) self-questioning methods of unearthing ones dysfunctional picture to where they can be seen. For only then can you expunge the assumptions and other pain causing material in your pictures and make them functional as well as add new needed pictures (a lot of us suffer from picture deprivation). This ability allows you to finally take conscious charge of your life and live a content and happy life.

Crushed & Crowned guides the reader through a "museum of bodies," seeking to "illuminate thedarkest corners of our history. From sanitation workers killed in Memphis, to elegies aimed atresurrection, these poems forbid sleeping. Murals of saints guard refugees, statues replaceenslavers with confident Black teens, a high school teacher observes the joys and sorrows of hisstudents. These poems also stop us at one of the world's largest refugee camps, inviting us to seeLGBTQ refugees and their plight. These poems center the lives of Harriet Tubman and FrederickDouglass, considering their places in our history. These poems believe that if we read and livewith the right spirit, the "crushed" of our world can end up "crowned."

Think "Babe." Who will you associate that with? Most people will say, "Babe Ruth." But there are 32 players whose nickname is Babe. And that is not the most prolific nickname. There are 42 BUDs, 46 BUCKs, and 35 WHITEYs. Most popular is the nickname of LEFTY. Nearly 190 players were nicknamed LEFTY, most of them pitchers. Position players tend not to carry that moniker. RED appears more than 140 times, presumably when the player had hair. DOC or similar names appeared 100 times; some of those player were actually doctors. This book explores nicknames for players who performed on the major league level. For those who like food, there is everything from BUTTERMILK to YAMS. Whether your taste runs to breakfast, dinner, snacks or treats, a nickname is here to describe it. There are animals from ANT to WEASEL; birds from BIRD to WARBLER; fantasy characters from DRAGON to WEREWOLF. The law is amply represented from CAPTAIN to COLONEL, even to the LONE RANGER. No matter which player or which nickname, the reader is sure to enjoy the look into the pastime of the game and the names bestowed on those who have played the game at the highest level. This book shows major league baseball players from the early days of professional baseball to the present. The front section of the book shows the players, their nicknames, the origin of those names if known, the teams each player played for, and the first and last year of major league play. The second part of the book is an alphabetical listing of nicknames and the players who used them.

“Walt Whitman writes: I am he attesting sympathy. Joseph Ross could say the same. The poems in Ache flow from a fountain of compassion for those so often denied these sacred waters: immigrants crossing the border at their peril, people of color murdered by police now and half a century ago, the martyrs whose names we know—from Trayvon Martin to Archbishop Romero—and whose names we do not know. In one breath, the poet speaks in the voice of Nelson Mandela, addressing the mother of lynching victim Emmett Till; in the next breath, he speaks of his own high school student, a young Black man spat upon by an officer of the law. In clear, concise language, Joseph Ross praises and grieves the world around him, the music as well as the murder. He also engages in prophecy: If you leave your country in the wrong hands, / you might return to /see it drowning in blood, / able to spit / but not to speak. Yes, indeed.” - Martín Espada
