I hope mis sueños go noticed too. "

2 " My parents pulled memories from the root and packed them into their suitcase when we immigrated here.

Stories told enthusiastically embellished con amor y agradecimiento for growth, healing, conflict, and trauma.

El destino final.

And how my ancestors know that. "

4 " I wash the remnants of men I don't respect off my skin like the way I wash dishes.
With joy, so I never have to feel the scent of them on my split ends and on the markings of my neck. "
