“Soneto de Idiota Yo no nací latino, ¡aún así me aceptarás, como tu gente propia! Mi corazón, alma, todo roto, ¿aceptarás las piezas como precio, por un lugar pequeño en tu familia? Me cuesta hablar español, todavía hay mucho que escribo. Poesía sólo necesita un buen corazón, ni impecable gramática, ni vocabulario. Soy local porque soy responsable - Cada pueblo mi pueblo, mi humanidad insiste. Got no past no future, el idiota stands at your door, And I ask you again, ¿me tomarás como tu gente?”

“Seamos (The Spanglish Sonnet) Seamos evolución, Seamos la revolución. There is plenty pollution, Ahora seamos la solución. Seamos soldados, Seamos amantes. Fear not the fiery storms, Y seamos valientes. Seamos la esperanza, A la gente, seamos alegría. In a world of self-obsession, Vamos amigos, seamos la ayuda. El servicio a la sociedad no es caridad, For it is just life, porque es la humanidad.”
