Trochemoche, "helterskelter" in Spanish, expresses the turmoil of the barrio and explores recovery and personal growth, ways of knowledge, revolution, and the power of poetry. In the cadence of struggle, of street talk, and the salient speech of the social outcast, Trochemoche is about new meters, new meanings, the new verse of colors, breath, and whispers at the closing of the millennium and at the mouth of the new. It expresses soul-freedom as the clarion call of the new politics.

HARD TO FIND
"[Rodriguez] takes street-tough rhythms and a flair for self-dramatization, and imbues them with a lyric sensibility, forging lines best read aloud: "I am capitalism's angry Christ, techno Quetzacoatl, toppling the temples/ of modern thievery, of surplus value in word-art/ --exploited, anointed, and perhaps double-jointed."--Publisher's Weekly
"While filled with the heart and words of Chicano culture, Rodriguez's poems transcend the scope of race and ethnicity. The topics he addresses in this book--relationships, justice, love, and the irony of daily life--are, or should be, the subjects that envelop us all."--Aaron McCarroll Gallegos, Sojourners
