fact or fiction
Is it fact or merely fiction? Fact or Fiction explores the myths and beliefs we hold about what makes a good poem and the poetry rules that were made to be broken.
Ixchel
In the ethereal tapestry of existence, under the watchful gaze of Ixchel’s guiding light under my mother wove the threads that brought me forth into this vibrant, chaotic world. You gifted me to my mother and before you left, you said, when it is time for me to return, you will be confused, but as you look to the uj (moon) in the sky, you will be comforted.

The blues called, and I answered not with apology, but with cadence. This is not a song for politeness. It is a dispatch from the mythic edge, where care is not weakness, and trouble is sacred. I grew up listening to the powerful voices of women before me, who shared their truths through worn microphones and with proud, unyielding spirit. Janis, Big Mama, Bessie did not whisper. They roared.
