Poetrypalooza Grand Finale at The Last Bookstore


Today I will be co-hosting the grand finale of the 2012 Poetrypalooza Tour in downtown LA! I'll also be giving a featured reading. I am really excited to present some of my LA poems to the audience, as well as reveal some new pieces about shame and the eager secrets of my early dreams. 

I'm happy to be sharing the spotlight with my good friend, photographer, Nicole Fournier. She will have some of her latest work on display and for purchase. I'm very proud of the efforts made by the ZzyZx Writerz in creating this phenomenal event that gulps each segment of Los Angeles county. Their aspirations have brought onboard even more thriving talent and support from more of the community. 

I look forward to the future as we collectively celebrate "Poetry in Life!"

The Last Bookstore show begins: 2-6pm
Address: 453 S. Spring St. Los Angeles, CA 90013

One Month Away!

In one month, I get to marry the most loving person I've ever met in my lifetime! Juan Adrian Cardenas, thank you for loving me.   Te amo! I have been in bliss ever since I've met him...and I can't believe how well I could ever get along with another human being. This is a wonderful gift, and I hope all of humanity gets the opportunity to experience this. Dreams come true. You must NEVER give up on yourself. You must also believe that you are WORTH every bit of happiness. You must cherish YOURSELF first before you find true love... True Love Never Diez... :) Love for yourself is really the primary thing...do what you love, be who you want to be... and your energy will exude into the ether...sending out pheromones, this is the attraction. Be yourself... you ARE the attraction. It's so possible, just never give up...that is my advice. Not sure if anyone asked, but I had to write this down. This is the path I've taken, which has led me to Juan. Led ...

To my brother:

To my brother: you are my unconditional love. never was there any more, never shall there be any less. <3 you showed me that it was possible to be happy with myself, even when I refused to see past the haze of insecurity. i am sitting here, wanting to share words with you. all i can think of is a silent prayer to you for hopes that the words would finally come. i love you, anthony. always.
