A Rush of Hands
Juan Delgado
The whispers of buried lives. The silence of a growing resistance. The stigma of poverty. In poems that deal honestly with the realities of urban life, Juan Delgado explores the boundaries we cross daily, whether dramatizing the effects of drive-by shootings, unfolding a labor protest that “spreads across the city like a prayer,” or summoning a ghostlike immigrant damned to retrace his journey across the border.
