Alma mater revisited these hallways contained unkempt books, books long unread long un-curated. a library far from its potential. no money to take care of books the government says— shame, shame. How could this be? How could we allow such a thing? Oh, please tell me why, for I know not. In these hallways I… Continue reading Alma Mater Revisited

Fans and Thermal Waters
Thermal waters, total relaxation. The energy, the stress. All zapped away in 15 minutes of sweat inducing waters. Had to walk slow up the steps to lay on the brick bench. I could feel my heart beat all around my body as the relaxing tunes played in the background. An iguana jumped from tree to… Continue reading Fans and Thermal Waters
things Begin to Unfold
It is an honor to see you are remembered and held in such high esteem around these parts. The lady you helped in your FEMA days remembered you. The nice old man at the guard tower too, even my new buddy remembered you. I see myself as you or as your successor. The energies in… Continue reading things Begin to Unfold

Unpurposed Structures, Unattended Trees
I walked the streets of the Northern town that saw me open my eyes for the first time by the waves plagued by abandoned buildings. The blue prison that could be a museum, I saw.

He teaches me things not so apparent at first glance, Like Daniel, I have had to peel at the layers of these obscure lessons towards a process of self-discovery. In a world where brainwashing is as real as the leaves that fall from the trees,… Continue reading Obscure Lessons

Darkness doesn’t last forever, even the Morning fog dissipates to display a radiant sun, down on the valley that was here before you and… Continue reading Reconsider
Un nuevo atardecer
Caminamos por la sombra y el sol en multitud unidos, Por el valle que un día dio fruto hacia el Pueblo de los Bellos Atardeceres a Cantar y Bailar por la vía de la Libertad, Y Las lloviznas nos despidieron Sotto l’ombra di un bel fior.
Preciosa
Que preciosa eres y que afortunados somos ser hijos tuyos, El primer amanecer que vimos fue el tuyo, el primer aire que respiramos y las primeras estrellas que observamos en el bosque, entre los robles y los pinos, y el cantar del coquí. No puedo dejarte, preciosa, no puedo olvidarte, no puedo abandonarte. No hay… Continue reading Preciosa
Mamá
En nuestro rincón del paraiso caminábamos por bosques y quebradas y llegábamos una y otra vez a la Torre Eiffel caribeña. No había camino al que no me siguieras, cruzando por los aires y el mar. Cuando te sentías sola, explorábamos los encantos del Oeste, sus aguas, el Santuario y conquistábamos los cerros de la… Continue reading Mamá
