Megan Espinor


ilnamiqui (remember)

trickling tears touching tongues,
satin silks softly soured,
fretfully feeding flowers - Fears.


prisms of rainbows,
lands of dictionaries and dreams,
sides to every coin.


a killer kiss

the Catalyst


romanticizing roses all around
one of my biggest falls
freely on corroded concrete ground
man-made materials mark dark


exhibits

enviously

erotic


So

I breathe

I remember

I return to myself,

I return to us all.



A Chicana and native south Texan, Megan Espinor uses her cultural background and studies in anthropology to embody the emotion in her pieces. She loves to play with syntax and language imagery on the page, as a way of bringing the piece to life. When Mrs. Espinor isn't writing, she's traveling the world with her husband, dancing, learning, and hanging out with her dog and cat - Moosey and Leeloo.
