Topics addressed in the poems include: an unsolved local murder, the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, infatuation with a Mexican movie star, lessons learned from a failed relationship, the comfort of sex, hope of intense love, racial conflicts observed and experienced by new immigrants, a little known fact about a famous ancestor, the down side of being able to fly, facing life with faith and desire, and an entertaining attempt to create an opera using six words. The film is a celebration of creativity and Washington, DC. Written by Sujewa Ekanayake See less
