Synopsis

Andres Diaz (a.k.a. Spice) has been writing poems since he was 17. The words and rhymes were his safe space as he struggled with unrequited love, bipolar episodes, an emotionally distant mother, sexuality, abuse, and addiction. And yet, through all of it, the stubborn, ridiculous persistence of hope gave Andres the words to express his anguish. Poetry + Me = Freedom of Speech is the first poetry collection of Andres. He writes about HIV, about mental illness, about the particular loneliness of a man who can't stop falling in love. He writes about his mother, about his brother, about the therapist's office, and about the empty side of the bed. And he writes with raw honesty that will make you uncomfortable before giving you solace.
