Wendy Jane's Facebook Poems Cross Colorlines Daily

By now, most of you know about my Facebook poems, the daily poems I create from my friends' status updates.  Well, it's crossed my mind, more than once, that these poems are a melding of many voices:  black, white, Latino, Cape Verdean, Asian, and more.  How often do we get to hear voices come together in one piece of work, other than in song?Here are three recent poems that bring a diversity of voices togetherSunday, May 27, 2012
