Something wrong?About this person
He would reference his pre Columbian ethnicity and the two Latino cultures he came from as large influences on his works but did not want to be called a ‘Latino poet’ because he believed it to be a limiting term that was only needed for introducing people to his work. He also did not want himself or his work to be associated with the New York School Poets, though he appreciated their friendship.
