About Me

Welcome to my blog! Sometimes, I write in Spanish, others in English, but basically this is my daily diary of sorts. Los invito a mi blog, que es como un diário de mis eventos y escritos que a veces son en español, y a veces en inglés...

A poem by Diane Wakoski

My Trouble
 
 
my trouble
 
is that I have the spirit of Gertrude Stein
 
but the personality of Alice B. Toklas;
 
craggy, grand
 
stony ideas
 
but
 
all I can do
 
is embroider Picasso's drawings
 
and bake hashish fudge.
 
I am poor
 
and don't have very much to say
 
and usually taken for
 
somebody's
 
secretary.
 
 
Diane Wakoski
