BETWEEN LOVE & OTRAS CHINGADERAS
… is a collection of prose, poems and short stories. The product of the past five years—from the green mountains of Chiapas, Mexico to the dusty streets of (Tabarre) Port-Au-Prince and the irreverence that the Spirit of God has planted in his heart—put into the limits of words. Love, just as the iconic Mexican word, chigadera, is versatile, creative, life giving. The life that emanates out of love makes you radically unapologetic, irrational as to the healing power that it brings. Hence, the binary of life is undomesticated love, tenderness in private and justice in the public realm.

All lives matter! Yes!<br />
But, you well know<br />
That some lives matter more than mine,<br />
It’s a fact!<br />
Lakota lives, property of the State!<br />
A Country that hates again.<br />
Police man shoots again?<br />
You hear White-man with a badge kills again!<br />
You forget, hate and fear wears a brown face!<br />
An investigation will be open, no comment ‘til then.<br />
Extrajudicial killing,<br />
that’s it!<br />
Exonerated…. may be!<br />
Keep singing<br />
The new normal<br />
Has set in!<br />
Write the new call to unity,<br />
NBC, MSNVC, dissect every word!<br />
To numb all sleeping ‘Merican hearts,<br />
While the NRA<br />
Turns to watch and enjoy!<br />
Your little bastard child has performed!<br />
Applause, applause…<br />
Encore, encore, encore!<br />
North Korea, China<br />
The Atomic Bomb<br />
I’ve killed Mother Earth!<br />
Your little grown-up bastard child,<br />
I am!
