escribΓ este poema en febrero del 2023

Como un carnero el tomo mi corazon
y lo cortΓ³ en una docena de piezas
sin remordimientos, sin perdons
y lo consumio
aqui esta la version en Ingles:
https://lifeonthebpd.com/?p=11863
un lobo disfrazado de cordero me jodio la vida
fingiΓ³ ser mi amigo con elogios y empatia falsa
hasta que un dia me di cuenta quien era de verdad
un mentiroso y psicΓ³pata
y me enfrente a Γ©l y lo bote de mi universo
cuando el me digo que no habΓa hizo nada malo
que le gustaba su privacidad
y no se disculpΓ³ por de su mentira de una dΓ©cada
que me destruyo, pero al menos me abriΓ³ los ojos
Para que lo descartar de mi vida
y aunque todavΓa escribo poesΓa acerca e el
(me dio una gran fuente de inspiraciΓ³n para parar)
estoy bendecida que Γ©l estΓ‘ fuera de mi vida
la vida es demasiado corta para que pitucos
como brads, chads, y kens que piensan
que por su privilegio puedan hacer
lo que se le da la gana sin consecuencias

all eyes on taylor as she ignites a battle
between the sexes
men triggered by her existence
women coming to her defense
sharing memes and articles
to validate her popularity
and Taylor
she just want to love and support
her boyfriend like any ordinary girl
except sheβs
she taylor mutherfucking swift
our it girl of the 21st century

what is it about poets and writers I find so attractive
maybe it’s how they play with words
that makes me yearn to become their muse
maybe itβs their expression of passion
that makes them the object of my obsession
maybe itβs because their creativity makes
me want to make poetry with their bodies
this poem is inspired by the 2006 “acknowledgement”.

a wolf in sheepβs clothing got to me
he pretended to be my friend
with endless compliments and fake empathy
Until one day I found out who he really was
a liar ,a psychopath
and I called him out and blocked him
from my universe when he said he didnβt do no wrong
when he said, he just liked his βprivacyβ
and offered no apologies after a decade long lie
which added to my trust issues
but at least it opened my eyes
enough to kick him out of my life
and while I still make poetry out of him
(he gave me too much material to ignore)
Iβm grateful heβs out of my life
life is too short for entitled Brads, Chads,and Kens
who think that just because of their privilege
they can get away with ANYTHING

dejan su patria por una mejor vida
por el bienestar de su familia
nunca pensando en las consecuencias
de esta decisiΓ³n
nunca pensando del sufrimiento
que este paso puede causar
y al empezar su nueva vida en amΓ©rica
se enfrentar con la dura y cruel realidad
de ser inmigrante
nunca siendo aceptados,
siempre ser tratados como algo menos
de ser humanos
siempre teniendo que trabajas el doble, el triple
para poder sobrevivir
nunca dΓ‘ndose el lujo de parar
para procesar sus sentimientos
o lo que estΓ‘n viviendo hasta aΓ±os despuΓ©s
cuando todo el trauma que vivieron
viene como un huracΓ‘n en su mente,
en su cuerpo que se adueΓ±a de ellos
y no los quiere soltar
aqui esta la version en ingles
https://lifeonthebpd.com/?p=11853
muchos tomaron muchas apuestas de cuΓ‘nto tiempo durarΓ‘n
con una generaciΓ³n de edades entre ellos
y las gran diferencias de culturas
todos dudaban en su cuento de amor
pero, ellos funcionaron por mΓ‘s de una dΓ©cada
y criaron a tres hombres por casi dos dΓ©cadas
y aunque un dia su incompatibilidad les alcanzΓ³
y ellos tuvieron que poner un fin a su cuento de amor
lo reconstruyeron con las base de amor
que ellos alguna vez compartieron
y en el mejor interΓ©s de sus hijos
y evolucionaron a cuento saludable de amistad
donde todo su resentimiento y ira fue enterado
y no hay animosidad entre ellos sobre el pasado
donde ellos se apoyan y por fin
son los padres que sus hijos se merecen

bomb of rage detonated and set off
the angry woman takes over
I watch
as she villainizes, demonizes
She canβt be stopped
She burns bridges and laughs
about it
I hate her, I wish she didnβt exist
sheβs my shadow, my anger
whoβs built to protect me
to grant me power
when I feel powerless
sheβs a part of me
who canβt be suppressed or ignored
I learn to love her, give her attention
she craves
and in due time
introspection and therapy happens
and sheβs finally integrated into me
and she becomes my super power
Me and her
weβre a force of nature
not to be fucked with
this poem is inspired by the 2006 poem, “poem for a couple I never knew”

many took bets on how long theyβd last
between the age gap, the difference in cultures
they didnβt stand a chance
yet, they kind of made it work for more than a decade
yet, they still raised three fine young men for almost 20 years
and while their incompatibility caught up to them
and they had to end their love story
they rebuilt it on the foundation
of the love they once shared
and in the best interest of their children
and evolved into a healthy story of friendship
where any resentment and anger has been buried
and there are no hard feelings over past grievances
where they support one another
and are finally the parents their children
always deserved
I wrote this poem in February of 2024.

itβs the wild wild west inside my head
itβs where my demons decide to come out to play
they dance with traumatic memories
making my fears and insecurities come out to the surface
itβs the wild wild west inside my head
being insane becomes my personality and aesthetic
scaring away any potential love candidates
itβs been a long time since I held someoneβs hand
much less been in someoneβs bed
Itβs the wild wild went inside my head
And I wonder when will the demons get tired and leave
so maybe one day Iβm not so jaded
so maybe one day I give someone the chance
to take me out on a date
aquΓ esta la version en Ingles:
poetry: my favorite customer
era otra noche aburrida en el trabajo
estaba atrapada en la isla diez
entre alma naciendo productos
y mis pensamientos intrusivos
una canciΓ³n de los 90s suena de la altavoz
y cuando voy a cantar
escucho pasos detrΓ‘s de mΓ
me volteo y Γ©l estΓ‘ allΓ
mi cliente favorito, 5β10, cabello negro y crespo
labios carnosos y rojos, y un cuerpo hecho
por un dios griego
estaba mirando las ollas y sartenes
me volteΓ³ al revΓ©s para que el no me vea
y mientras amanecΓa los tupperware
le echaba miradas furtivas
esperaba que Γ©l no se darΓa cuenta
de mi porque estaba hecha toda
un desmadre para coquetear
y mi corazoncito muerto resucitΓ³
y empezΓ³ a volar mi imaginaciΓ³n
con fantasΓas de nuestro primer beso
y justo alli
el se me acercΓ³ y pensΓ©, βhay dios mioβ
claro que me pregunto por una olla
que no teniamos
le dije que βnoβ y me disculpe
el me contesto βno paso nadaβ
con su voz quebrada
y rapido se fue
y me pregunte, βestoy alucinando
pero se me hace que el tambiΓ©n esta atraido a miβ
this poem was inspired by this silly poem from 2006 called, “A poetic tale”.

it was another boring night at work
I was stuck on aisle 10 between stocking
and my racing thoughts
a 90s dance song comes on the speaker
and just when Iβm about to sing
I heard footsteps behind me
I turned around and there he was-
my favorite customer
5β10 ,curly black hair, full red lips
and a body built by some Greek God
he was looking at pots and pans
I quickly turned my back to stock the tupperware
and sneaked glances and admired him from afar
hoped he didnβt notice me in my Kroger garb
I looked like too much of hot mess to flirt
but still my dead and jaded heart was resuscitated
and my imagination took flight
as fantasies of him surfaced to my mind
and just as Iβm imagined our first kiss
he approached me, -OH NO!
of course he asked for a specific type of pan
we didnβt have
I told him no and apologized
in my best customer service voice
and he told me βno worriesβ
as his voice cracked and walked away quickly
and I wondered, am I imagining things,
or is he also attracted to me?
I wrote this poem in January of 2024.

Open mics, family, karaoke nights, dance parties,
Tarot readings, poems written on sticky notes,
Epiphany after epiphany about how I have always been worthy,
Long conversation about life in coffee shops,
Trips to my dadβs hometown, sharing silly verses with friends
making dumb videos, coffee cups that say main character energy
dancing in car while I drive, taking picture of the moon
and everything else that brings me joy,
and every single experienced Ive lived,
every single person Iβve loved
is what my lifeβs purpose is about
Itβs joy,hate, love, anger, empathy, envy
it all brings purpose to my wretched everyday
existence
here’s the English version of this poem:
https://lifeonthebpd.com/?p=11733
nos dejo de la noche a la manana
volo al otro lado
para encontrarse con su amado
dejΓ‘ndonos con un duelo inmenso
no hay lΓ‘grimas o palabras
para ablandar nuestro dolor
y ahora nos volvemos
en montaΓ±as de remordimientos
hasta que aceptamos
que el paso el tiempo serΓ‘ nuestro
mejor amigo para sanar
de su gran ausencia
