The In-Between Poetry

Grateful to have shared my poetry at the Springfield Puerto Rican Parade Kick-Off this weekend. 🌺

I performed a piece honoring my grandmother and celebrating our Afro-Boricua roots—a reminder that our stories carry power, legacy, and love. Thank you to everyone who came through with such vibrant energy, and felicidades again to all the honorees!

A special shout out to Judah Barak Cacique✨, this year’s Youth Ambassador— We were absolutely blown away by your brilliance, wisdom, and presence. With a name like yours, there’s no doubt you’re destined to shift the world. We’re rooting for you. 🌟

Enjoy a snippet of my poem “The Rhythm That Outran Erasure” and a few pictures from the night (I really wish I had taken more pictures lol) 🇵🇷🤍
