About me:
- Dancing with Denise at the Guguancó Social in Houston, TX ......Soy an ajiaco of contradicciones.
Vexed, hexed, complexed,
hyphenated, oxygenated, illegally alienated,
Gustavo Pérez-Firmat
from "Bilingual Blues"
I am a copper skinned Chibcha from the land of El Dorado. Batá drums dictate the cadence of my heart. Salsa pulsates through my peripheral pulses--y En Clave. I am a picadillo of ink-stained revolutions and orgullo Hispano. I am the sum of the difference of two cultures that don't add up. My verse is my lance. I am the cuentero, preserver of a history not yet told, yet ignored. My tumbao flows in dreams and realism. I capture the world through pixelated screens and fixed lenses. My guguancó is sung in short stories and graphite sketches. I am a Bohemio, drunk in the reality of being a left-handed Latino in a right-handed world. I am the square of the controversy of an intellectual plus a Católico and a hippie divided by the military. I am the congrí of a Colombian frijol in Louisiana bathed in Miami mojo. Aquí estoy. Ya llegué. Y qué?
Who I'd like to meet:
Like-minded individuals: Salseros, writers, artists. Intellectuals. Católicos y no. Gente como yo, pero diferente. Be from anywhere, I love to travel, even if just in a conversation. People with stories. People I can learn from.
