Soul
By: Ana Portillo Latin
Poet Ana Portillo Latin's work is heavily influenced by the great Sylvia Plath. She began writing in high school and continued writing poems based on melancholy inspirations. Sadness, for her, was not a penalty but an armoire of songs to indulge. Her poetry is a view of her youthfulness which embodies a time of free expression. For Latin, poetry is her state of clarity. Any youthful-thinking mind can find understanding and a valuable connection through her poetry.
