The Poet X ist ein realistischer Roman, der in Versen geschrieben ist. Es handelt von der 15-jährigen Xiomara Batista, einer begabten Dichterin, die mit ihrer Familie in Harlem, NY, lebt. Der Roman ist aus Xiomaras Sicht und liest sich wie ihr persönliches Tagebuch mit Gedichten, das ihr Leben beschreibt, ihre Ansichten über Religion, die ständige Konfrontation mit Sexismus, ihre strengen dominikanischen Eltern, ihren neuen verbotenen Freund und ihre Reise durch die Welt als junge Frau Farbe versucht, ihre Stimme zu finden.

- IMAGERY: MAMÍ ON THE SUBWAY
- Xiomara says Twin was born a soft whistle while she was born a hurricane. Her brother is quiet and meek, unable to stand up for or fight for himself. Xiomara on the contrary is steadfast in her opinions and does the fighting for both of them. Ever since they were little, Xiomara stood up to anyone who disrespected either of them using her words and her fists.
- “My brother was birthed a soft whistle: quiet, barely stirring the air, a gentle sound. But I was born all the hurricane he needed to lift -and drop- those that hurt him to the ground”
- Xiomara writes that poetry is lantern glowing in the dark. She compares her ability to write about her emotions and experiences through poetry as if it were a light in the darkness, showing the way, opening her up to be true to herself, to make friends, to take risks, and to be open to opportunities.
- "It has brought me the most light. And isn't that what a poem is? A lantern glowing in the dark"
- Xiomara depicts a very sympathetic view of her mother when she describes how hard her mother works scrubbing buildings in Queens and, exhausted, rides the subway two hours on multiple trains to get home. Xiomara respects how hard her mother works and the many sacrifices she makes for her family despite their differences and their contentious relationship.
- "Mami works . . . rides two trains in the early morning . . . her hands never stop moving . . ."
