Yes, you can insert Racket-style expressions instead of Pollen-style 
expressions. [1]

The `root` wrapper is always added by Pollen, but you can use the splicing 
operator `@` to accomplish the same thing. Therefore this:

#lang pollen/markup
◊(@ "I want to attend " (em "RacketCon " (strong "this") " year") ".")

is the same as this:

#lang pollen/markup
I want to attend ◊em{RacketCon ◊strong{this} year}.

Or mix the styles:

#lang pollen/markup

◊(@ "I want to attend " (em "RacketCon " (strong "this") " year") ".")
I want to attend ◊em{RacketCon ◊strong{this} year}.
