"Heart Shape Disco Ball"

I am happily to let everyone know that my poem, "Heart Shape Disco Ball" was chosen for a Valentine Zine that will be published next year. This is my first time submitting a poem for a publication and getting chosen. I can't believe it. I can't wait to receive a copy of the publication.

I am going to share my poem with all of you:

"Heart Shape Disco Ball"

You made my heart spin like a disco ball,

that one night at La Cita for Punky Reggae,
dancing to that Joy Division song, “Transmission.”

Our bodies moving freely to the beat of bass lines,
guitar riffs, and drums,
synchronize with the singers voice singing,
“Dance, Dance, Dance to the radio.”

I felt like Cinderella at the ball,
dancing with Prince Charming for one night only,
when the clock struck 2:00 a.m closing time at the bar,
 I left with only knowing your first name,
 Daniel.

Boy Diaries



I was thinking today in how boys are so strange especially when they write emails... I have been writing to a friend who lives in South America... and I always write in the closing your friend,....but in the last two emails he wrote in his closing send you tons of kisses...and I was a bit hesitant in what to write in my closing so I just replied kindly send you a peck of a kiss...I just wrote that because there's no true expectations in any way of our relationship flourishing into anything else. Even when I admitted to him last year that I had a crush on him he just said "You are a special friend." What a way to tell someone you don't like them..."Like That"... I don't know why boys can be so confusing if you don't like someone romantically just write your name on the closing "Don't send them kisses or say love" that only makes a person think that there can be a possibility but really there is zero interest on the other end...
