Tlazokamali juan felipe you’re a natural and a pro-poet from way back, before barcodes and book store chains. It’s wonderful how you shared your corner library de chapbooks that most people won’t ever see. Que viva floricanos, cantos al pueblo, and nuestro carnal Coahiltecan tejano poet raulrsalinas!
