  • He was my English 1 teacher

  • @TheOriginalFattieZ No it isn't. The only similarity is that they both use sign language. Don't challenge Joaquin's originality or creativity.

  • Finally- found it!

    This is the poem that was presented to our school by him that everyone was so moved by...

  • I agree, I wonder which one was written first.

  • I feel sorry for all of us who miss out on the poetry he has to offer... Thanks for sharing some of his words with us Joaquin

  • This poem is so similar to Rives's deaf piece

  • I feel sorry for Jon. Imagine having such a poetic talent and not having a voice to speak.

  • very beautiful

  • very beautiful...I really love the poem. The silence of it, the voice of it. The feeling it brought to me felt very wonderful and moving.

    "I like the way static feels in my palms"

    very beautiful...It makes me want to learn sign language now...

    :-)
