Fighting Kite

by Vince Gotera

Fighting Kite narrates, in verse, the life of Martin Avila Gotera--son, trickster, soldier, schizophrenic, visionary, lawyer, workingman, father--a life that glimmers like the node, a shimmery knot, a glowing nexus, of the shared histories of the Philippines and the United States.

Beautiful poems about Gotera's relationship with his father. I was very inspired by his poems.
