A few time ago, I used to read poems in Spanish. Therefore, I
notice a different form and rhythm in English poems. However, I found the same
intensity, fiction, and reality in poems written by Tim Seibles. I will say
that he is focused in themes, such as, love, passion, and social political concerns.
For instance, young relationships, discrimination, injustice, and loneliness
were some subjects that he wrote about. In addition, he mentions few
contemporary films along with his experiences creating imaginary stories
which discuss the previous themes in his poems. Some of these movies were V for
Vendetta, Blade, and the Last Dragon. My favorite poems were Born, Wound and The
last poem about race which deals with the acceptance of others as equal. I
think that the author basically wrote his own love experiences within
affection, sensation in a descriptive way; he also cited quotations and
film titles to give emphasis to his poems, and expressed his
unconformity or acceptance to others.
