"You bring out the Mexican in me.
The hunkered thick dark spiral.
The core of a heart howl.
The bitter bile.
The tequila lágrimas on Saturday all
through next weekend Sunday.
You are the one I’d let go the other loves for
surrender my one-woman house.
Allow you red wine in bed,
even with my vintage lace linens.
Maybe. Maybe.
For you.
Quiero ser tuya. Only yours. Only you.
Quiero amarte. Atarte. Amarrarte.
Love the way a Mexican woman loves. Let
me show you . Love the only way I know how."

Fasinating piece! I really enjoy the bright colors of this blog. I feel the colors really bring out her name and who she was. I was very surprised to see what she looked like. I did not expect her to look the way she does. I She is very homely and looks like she had a lot to say based off of the poem poted on the blog. It kind of hits you right in the gut. Its almost like when I was reading her stuff i can relate and put myself in her position! Great Job
ReplyDeleteWow! I like how Sandra Cisnerios embraces her latino culture. She knows who she is and it comes out in her writting.
