From the Book - First edition.
A multilingual block in West Philly
Spanish becomes a secret; language of the dead
English is for atheism; language of woodworking
An English cousin comes to visit
Latina health vocab from the late '80s
Spanglish cousins on the New Jersey turnpike
Things go unsaid long enough...
Sedo buys me an upright; language of Bach
A book is its presence and absence
She said Norf Philly and one-two-free
Fania everything and salsa out-of-prints
The Foraker Act (on Boriken's-and the diaspora's-language history)
Gil-Scott Heron asks me a question
Writing's a muscle, it gets stronger
Silence=death (déjà vu all over again)
