Reflections of Fidel
(Taken from CubaDebate)

By Marlene Nadle:
Chasing the ghost of Allen Ginsberg takes a lot more energy than following his mentor Walt Whitman. Whitman just loafed and leaned observing life. Ginsberg danced and chanted his way around the world.
His bass voice in full throb, his brass finger cymbals always handy,...... [view]

sweetness mixes with sorrow,
a friend's gay laughter,
blood litters the streets,
basking in your triumph,
the foe you beat
thru it all,
the Formless speaks,
the veil lifts,
you finally see,
the clean slate,
do you have the courage to simply be? ... [view]

When I born, I black

Never give up, never lose hope.

Crush your heart. Be broken."

needed to be there for me,
to contribute, to lend
their generosity, accommodations,
anything,
besides books. I was an individual, a fortress,
I could do it all myself because never taking
meant never owing.
What have I...... [view]

Dave Brubeck
Night. Working, listening to Brubeck on my bed, jazz

Nothing is mine but work, and this room, accompanied
by the radioed tempo. Work is good,
love is...... [view]

I'm not always sure of what is positive
I'm not always sure of what's constructive

I wish you could've understood me...... [view]
