D.C. poet and performer Quique Avilés is currently performing his new work, “Tongue: Sin Pelos en la Lengua,” a funny and thought-provoking cross between standup comedy and poetry. As the title implies, Quique is essentially talking about language and how we use it. So we think it fitting to launch our special issue about “las letras en D.C.” with one of the poems from the show. Enjoy!
There’s still a chance to catch Quique’s final performance this Saturday night at GALA. Here’s what you need to know:
Quique Avíles presents “Tongue: Sin Pelos en la Lengua.”
