Best Cubans Poems
Sugar CubaSugar Cuba?
What's so normal about normalization?
We become a little more socialist
They become a little more capitalist
We all meet in the middle and hold hands… How sweet!
They give us Cuban cigars
We give them rap music
A form of torture
We can now visit Cuban hotels
Cubans can visit Disney...

Italy Isn'T So LittleThe blonde went down
with not must resistance
shunning off a stressful afternoon
the scene played of society, high
as I peered at all the pretense
and pretend of an I want to be
better than you and me
old men with young jewelry
cradling arms and new cufflinks
with...

Good Night Fidel CastroAdieu Fidel Castrol! Adieu Castro!
What a life, What an adventure!
The west with its sophisticated propaganda
could not kill you. In your prime they sought to
assassinate you, yet the world counted on you!
you were the evil they made us believed you were, yet Cuba had the...

CubaCuba…Mamma Mia…like most of the Caribbean; part of the 1492 slam…
Slavery, sugar plantations… invasions, upheaval, independence…
Then the American kisses; with a slight twist…who initiated the ’disses’…?
Was it Blaine…is he insane…?
Was it Marti…the heart of the party…?
Or Teller…many say he was the real speller…
Or Estrada Palma…could...

My Favorite Republican For 2016The Castros make Rubio rowdy
To them he'll never say howdy
Marco's so steady
So why he is ready
To kiss the kings who are Saudi?
Author's Note: Are Saudi Kings beloved by their people and so much better than Cuban dictators? Do Saudi royals not need body...

I'm on "Probation"
I can't catch any "Cases"
Cause they goin give me a "Equation"
I feel like grabbing the "Knife"
Of "Mike"
And "Jasons"
An put nails in my face like "Hellraiser"
An I'm feeling hot I feel like I'm goin to hell...

America Is GoneI opened my eyes and questioned the America I use to know.
The America that stood for hope and a better life was
crumbling. Americans fighting, destroying, arguing, protesting,
and killing! The Hate that has infected many is like another
Virus but one that's in our hearts! In the...

Fidel Castro the Diablo's Death Christmas AgainCastro! the Diablo of Life succumbs to Death
Castro! the devil’s advocate
orchestrated hooligans,
and kept a destructive quest.
Turned a civil nation chaotic.
Death, destruction, and demoralizing tactics
fell tears through the land.
Millions of cries hit the skies over Cuba.
This a cry that would never stop
as even the...

Stupid SuperheroIn his la-la-world
he is a superhero
fake teeth
fake hair
fake love
fake dreams
instead of wife
has a decoy
plastic figures
instead of kids
mac chicken bites
and burger kings
diapers
instead of underwear
playing nonstop
video games
killing fake monsters
by thousands
selling ice cubes to eskimoes
and cigarettes
to the cubans
the only super power he has
is sneezing,
burping

My WorldMy World-(Rap Poem by Josner Saintil)
I live in a world where Democrats are not democratic
I live in a world full of drugs...and crack addicts.
I live in a world where Republicans want to do nothing or pass unfair laws
Often using some restrictions to slow something down...or...

RevolutionSo tell me
about injustice and hate
Shouting stop censorship
and the KKK
How America sells lies
and blood for oil
Killing Muslims
solely to colonize their soil
Did you forget
who begot who
About Gold, God, Glory
and slavery too
Kind of like Hitler
exterminating the Jews
The London Air Raids
and the apathy that pacifies you
So...

Dramatic Monologue
The President Visits CubaIt has been over 90 years since a US President visited Cuba. I feel it is the right time for this to happen.
The "Cuban people" have suffered greatly under the dictatorship of Castro rule, especially the young.
America is only 90 miles from the...

Coquihalla HolidayLoaded up and gassed
Got a four-day pass
Ramblin' in the Rockies
...Coquihalla holiday
Crested o’er the pass
Hope the brakes’ll last
Needle Peak behind me
...Coquihalla holiday
Driver’s turnin’ pale
Down the Devil’s Tail
To Othello. It's a mother.
...Coquihalla holiday
Evening shadows fade
Running down grade
Almost got it made
...Coquihalla holiday
Morning shining in
Y’oughta see my grin
It’s heaven...

Lunchroom TearsShe removes her hands from her face
to reveal harlequin tears
strolling down salt colored cheeks
that glare with a thin layer of blush.
Green eyes gloss over
and pour out in public.
Her boyfriend carries on.
He laughs and he plays,
while she sits next,
while her entirety bleeds
out in salt water...
