Writing & Listening: Analysis of “Por si acaso no regreso” by Celia Cruz

Por si acaso no regreso

Attached above is a paper that Edina Begic & I completed for US Latino Literature in which we listened to the song “Por si acaso no regreso” by Celia Cruz and analyzed the lyrics for literary and rhetorical devices. I chose this because I found it interesting to learn about Celia Cruz and then find meaning in her song lyrics based on her life experiences. This artifact represents my competency in listening to, understanding and writing about a song and finding meaning in its literary and rhetorical devices.
