Alexandria Sanchez's sestina

Beams directing traffic on Belmont

Paintings of St.Mary in each house

A blessing is in the home of Sanchez

Yelling at the top of my lungs, Alexandria!

Her lips the color of a summer rose

She might meet my girlfriend

 

Tired of the flat girlfriend

I ride the 70 down Belmont

In a garden I pluck a rose

And wait outside her house

Oh how I love the name Alexandria

The finest gem from Mrs. Sanchez

 

I love the sound of an Sanchez

It brings shame to my girlfriend

That fiery accent calls me to Alexandria

No matter the distance between me and Belmont

She can look in front of her house

Im on her sidewalk, holding a rose

 

I will always hand her roses

Predjuice eyes from a concern Sanchez

Oh if they ever found me in that house

So she walks to my girlfriend's

Away from the curious eyes on Belmont

They've ask where is my Alexandria?

 

Don't worry my Alexandria

Soft like the pedal of a rose

Let me kiss you outside of Belmont

Where nobody is named Sanchez

Show you where I lay next to my girlfriend

We can make love all over this house

 

Just get comfortable in this house

Spray that majestic spirit, Alexandria

Maybe I pass this flavor to my girlfriend

If willing, she can even get a rose

Call it the night she tasted a Sanchez

What we can share with the Latina on Belmont,

 

A girlfriend is snow on a dying rose

Warm in a house with a gem called Alexandria

Kissing the skin of an Sanchez, on Belmont
