Taína Goddess is an album of 184 poems presented in chronological order of their creation. Each poem  shows on which date it was composed. Each poem each recorded/composed within one day, most in one sitting, with one written by hand, all others typed into a phone. Each one is composed spontaneously in a stream-of-consciousness format. The poems are free-flowing words chronicling thoughts and emotions. When read all together, a story unfolds. Also there is a story within each poem and collectively as an album, the story of a physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual journey inspired by a friend and moving to a tropical island.
