"Denver Is," a poem

Sculpted beards hovering over the aroma of tasty local beer. Thin people jogging around me in dizzing squares. Gumbays and mariachi spring clean from backyards in Mexican neighborhoods. The whiff of cardinal SADA present on the weekend. Denver is a souvenir photograph with background mountains. An uber ride to course field to cheer on the Rockies. Its suburb after suburb after suburb. Its smiling faces watering lawns or pooling trash bins. Automatic return waves when I weigh first

Wrote this maybe two years ago. Published in Petechor. #poetry #latinopoet #petrichor #americanwestpoetry #denver

Oh, I love this. And I love this. This prompt that's it's beautiful. And I imagine that if you have one for each place that you've lived at, it creates this beautiful, like, memory. Collage that's that's really lovely. I might I might copy it and start doing it

Hi. I'm glad to hear you enjoy that prom. Yeah, it's worked really well for me. And as you were referring to, I have used it in different places, but I feel like I especially enjoyed it here in Denver where I'm living just because I feel really like it and it's eyes invigorated by the city. And I definitely do say that I've been writing a lot about it, about the city
