So guess!!! No really guess! Let me just start by saying…I was so excited! This year I came across a book called Chicana Falsa. It’s a tiny little thin book. So I thought why not, and I gave it a look. When I opened the book and read the first poem, I fell in love […]
You Act So White (excerpt)
March 7, 2010 by
“You act so white, Gabby,” Reyna says, accusingly. “What did I do now?” I ask with a sigh, tired of hearing the same old crap from her. “Girl, look at you,” she snickers, looking down at my shoes, “You got Converse on. When was the last time you saw a Latina wearing Converse, […]
Double Threat My Bleep (rough draft)
February 27, 2010 by
Disclaimer!!! This is very rough! Only my first draft! I haven’t made any corrections, and NOTHING is set in stone!!!!! “So, how was it?” Alex asks. “Did I miss anything good?” “Nah,” I say, maneuvering my arms through each bra strap, without taking off my shirt, and holding the phone in the crook of my neck.
