"Sin Planes (No Planes)" read by artist/poet Ana Maria Hernando

Kansas City, MO –

Excerpt from "Sine Planes (No Plans)"

Suavements me alvida,
I softly forget,
y el amanecer que esperaba
and the sunrise I was waiting for
en elf fondo del rio
at the bottom of the river
se nubla
gets clouded.

Vista vapores de gaza y celofan
I dress in vapors of gauze and cellophane.

Kansas City is known for its style of jazz, influenced by the blues, as the home of Walt Disney’s first animation studio and the headquarters of Hallmark Cards. As one of KCUR’s arts reporters, I want people here to know a wide range of arts and culture stories from across the metropolitan area. I take listeners behind the scenes and introduce them to emerging artists and organizations, as well as keep up with established institutions.
