Ten con Ten --
A poem by Luis Pales Matos
“You are, in pirate and black,
my stylized green island,
black gives you the shadow,
the pirate gives you the line.
Drum and arquebus at the same time
your brunette glorai exalt,
with red flowers of gunpowder
and brave rhythms of bamboo.
When the hurricane unfolds
its fierce accordion of gusts,
on the tips of its feet
agile bayadera dances
on the carpet of the sea
with a fine leg of palms.
You could wear a mantilla,
if your fiery ñáñiga blood didn't
exchange the slight foam of Spain
for madras.
You could look, slender,
sobriety of classic line,
if your sun, by dint of gold,
did not mature your amphorae
dilating their contours
in the amplitude of a jar.
You would pass before the world
as a civilian and citizen,
if your armpit flower of shadow
did not spread in the squares
the roaring chives
that your entrails suffer.
And so you are, my green Antillean,
in a yes it is that it is not of race,
in ten con ten of ancestry
that makes you so Antillean…
To the rhythm of the drums
you beautiful ten con ten you dance,
one half Spanish
and the other half African.”

You guys are on quite the foodie tour. I have only tried croquettes at Porto's Bakery in California, the owner originally from Galicia region of Spain. Maybe one day I will have them in Spain. Nice work as always!!

They are great in Spain. This is the first time we tried Spinach Croquettes, but it won't be the last!
