Receta

Receta, the exciting debut collection by Mario José Pagán Morales, is a story of becoming a poet. This poet. Boricua and part of a proud tradition of Nuyorican poets before and around him.

The expressive line breaks and easy movement between English and Spanglish are reflective of the poems' settings: the constant journeying of mind, spirit, and body to and from Guayanilla and Ponce, Puerto Rico, Philadelphia and New York City. The Bronx.

The BreakBeat Poets Present: LatiNext

In the dynamic tradition of the BreakBeat Poets anthology, The BreakBeat Poets Vol. 4: LatiNext celebrates the embodied narratives of Latinidad.  Poets speak from an array of nationalities, genders, sexualities, races, and writing styles, staking a claim to our cultural and civic space.  Like Hip-Hop, we honor what was, what is, and what's next.

The anthology contains “Fiao/Rafi” by Mario José Pagán Morales
