Delia

Delia has been writing poems ever since Jorge, her husband, was imprisoned during a dictatorship. These texts were her refuge, a place where she could express what she never shared, what she had to put aside to support her family. When the dictatorship comes to an end, freedom seemed to have come for everyone, but she continued writing. Today, Delia hands me her poems to share with her family.

Long hair would look good on him, but so would a moustache. This summer by the sea, the trans boy Lucho knows that there is a lot in him that is difficult to share with others.
