Chicano Poems of Love HateBy Ariel Robello sing her a song a merengue line a slip on glove made of lace not plastic marry her to the fence on Alameda and Manchester where she stands under parasol of circus colors cutting symmetrical wedges coconut cucumber mango mamey fingers red with chilé lips a cracked slice of watermelon tight from salt sticks dipped and sucked on a desert survival trick she reads the liscense plates of each passing car writes them down in a code no MIT prodigy could break it is the language of ancestors glyphs used to transfer an entire civilization to an unknown plane the clean-up of precious fruit takes ten light changes two pairs passing in each direction a steady gutter growl of Broncos and Mactrucks exhaust of two-ton machinery clinging to her shoulders neck and back in La Ceiba she would make plans for Fridays be dressed for Club Luna Llena by ten a DJ and a tent wide enough to set sail for a warless country her worries dampened with the ardor of good times today she is too tired to plan such freedoms the Bandamobile passes Umpa! Umpa! Umpapá! a reckless toucan blaring memories of her life before red lights. Being Chicano Chicano poem Being Chicano/a is an easy thing. Maybe for other Chicanos it is But for me it's not. Everyday of my life I getTreated like I'm so wet back, Well what if I am? These puto/as don't know me Chicanos killing chicanos is what they want. Being chicano/a is not killing your own raza.

Listen to the distant rain soothe your soul. Kiss the vanilla sky. Touch the heavens. Dance beautifully in the palm of my hand. Soak your heart in the pond of lasting love, Wish upon the stars that this will never end. |
