From dark to light "Three Drops In A Pot." A three-part Latino perspective poetically portraying the negative, positive and possible outcomes of a two-sided coin called ghetto-hood. While trivialized, the growing undertones concerning youth, community gentrification, and faith are tense. Its deeper issues are difficult to facilitate without immediate confrontations. But drops are falling into life's pot and its flavor for future is seeping through the cracks. Still happening, a young journey prone to deviate and rebel in a community besieged by disguised acts of genocide, indiscriminate and hot. Can a drop of faith quench the current thirst for hate and anarchy? Can residents; old and new find compromise? Can the growing trend of violence and vulgarity in youth art, speech, and rap be altered? Can views be sensitized to broaden and foster opportunities where all can mutually vent frustrations and opinions? Can poetry facilitate such forum and discussion? Intended for teen and adult interaction, this skit fashioned collection of poems tries to portray a stepping into, passing through, and surpassing from a world drenched in sex, drugs, violence, betrayal, contradiction, and alienation to a place of exploration, discovery, and alternate solutions. Stemming from experiences as a teacher, counselor, advocate and adventure guide; a perspective for parents, teachers, social workers and elected officials to consider and share. For the Historic Migrant Melting Pot boiling and about to pop: A Cry! "Pete's Who am I - Wanna Be or River Red" A Place! "A Ghost Town, Besieged by Dark Blank Silhouettes and them said Wretched" A Prayer! "For Home and some still saying Give Me Light Not Hype"
