Slam Sunday-Prayers/Boricuas in New York
<p>Victoria-Lynn Moscoso is a 20 year old Puerto Rican poet living in New York who is passionate about writing about the experiences of women as well as the intersectionality of being a Hispanic woman herself.</p> <p>Her first poem, “Prayers pt. 1” was written on a random school night on a whim, and it explores the crosshairs between Victoria's identity as a queer woman and being raised as a decently devout Catholic girl. She hopes this poem can offer hope and solace to other queer girls trying navigate life as ex-religious or still religious and what that means for their queer identity.</p> <p>The poem "Prayers pt. 2" is a continuation of sorts of "prayers pt. 1", yet it works as an independent work of writing about celebrating one's identity amidst people who do not want you too. The author also likes to think of this poem as a two in one love poem that can be interpreted as a love letter to oneself or to someone else, but most importantly it emphasizes the perhaps a little bit cliché but still true idea that love always wins.</p> <p>The poem "Boricuas in New York" details Victoria's life living a fragmented identity as a Puerto Rican in the U.S. It makes personal the ramifications of gentrification and colonization and highlights the realities of many marginalized peoples.</p> <p>Full poems here: https://telling-kick-977.notion.site/Prayers-Boricuas-in-New-York-Full-Poems-1c420dd2fac140b9af238b744a585674</p> <p>Music by <a href="https://pixabay.com/users/lesfm-22579021/" target="_blank">Lesfm</a> from <a href="https://pixabay.com/" target="_blank">Pixabay</a>.</p> <p>Music by <a href="https://pixabay.com/users/itswatr-12344345/?tab=audio&utm_source=link-attribution&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=audio&utm_content=12278" target="_blank">ItsWatR</a> from <a href="https://pixabay.com/music/" target="_blank">Pixabay.</a></p>
