Howdy! Here’s a video of me and Steve Castro reading our poems for last Sunday’s Poetry + Play event at Syracuse Stage. Steve reads his poems in Spanish and I read his English translations of them. Then I read my poems in English and Steve reads his original translations of them into Spanish. This event was part of an afternoon of poetry in English and Spanish before the final performance of Espejos: Clean, a play by Christine Quintana performed at Syracuse Stage in Syracuse, New York on March 5, 2023.

My poems are being translated!
My friend, the poet Steve Castro, is translating some poems from my second book for a dual Spanish/English reading we’re going to be doing together next year at Syracuse Stage (more on that later!), and I find myself very touched, filled with a warm gratitude that several states away a wonderful poet is turning my little poems into another language, one which sadly I have no facility in. And such an awesome poet as Steve Castro! Everyone should get his poetry book Blue Whale Phenomena published in 2019 by Otis Books!
