“ataúd abierto para un obituario puertorriqueño” // “open casket for a puerto rican obituary”
This poem responds to Pedro Pietri’s “Puerto Rican Obituary” by expanding it to include those Puerto Ricans that still live in Puerto Rico, recontextualizing the imagined return in contemporary Puerto Rico.
