I saw this man live my freshman year of high school. Almost 4 years later, I still can't forget the incredible talent he has. Amazing. Beautiful.

Ever since my creative writing teacher played one of his poems during our poetry unit, I've loved Carlos' works. Such powerful and brilliant words. One day I wish to see him live like my cousin did (still jealous about it).

I LOVE this poem. Women and girls are easily and immediately dismissed by society and unfortunately for some, they dismiss themselves over this diabolical bullshit. I Love Diana, not because she was a "princess", I Love her because she was Diana. When your a female your not at all even seen as a human so that makes it more an excuse (because people know better and still carry on the behavior passing it to others) to keep attempting to shape and control whom they already have a sick fixation on. If you refuse to address anyone by their name and register them in your mind to be a full on human being, do not disrespect that living breathing being any further. So many attempt to create you instead of registering you in real time. Evil is evil, perversion is perversion.
