#chile
We were eating diner
a heartfealt family meal
a red aura asceued throughout
enuced my appeal.
He asked what the meal was called.
I looked at the *** as my mom's voice trailed off,
"Um... meat with sauce"
The deep red chile con nopales
todava existe con todas estas reglas sociales
She softened her tongue for colonizer mouths
we were eating our food in her own house
Chile colorado that stained her hands
turned to twisted song that sung a sour dance.
The conversation lasted a few seconds
but to me the thought beckoned
Its call Chile Colorado for it's deep red hue,
like the spilled blood of my ancestors
and I wonder; "What would they do?"
I draw my tortilla through the salsa
pero entre mi corazon algo senti falsa.
Why do we lie by our own words
Its almost like we are
scared to be heard.
The sharp english language hurts like a cut
but my creamy soft spanish rolls of my tounge.
Chile is a Nahuatl word
A representation of a blend of my two cultures
Mestiso, a swirling blend
of my Spanish colonizers
and my Native soul
stuck between two worlds, a song sung like a Oriol
My brown tint skin,
like the pews of a church or a sad sung hymn,
they do not hide behind a colonized word
so why should I hide the names of a food
of which with love we feed to you.

Iba por un túnel oscuro,
aferrado a la promesa de la luz,
un final que me cambiaría,
un final en el que quería creer.
Encontrarme no fue fácil ni apresurado,
pero tampoco imposible.
No todo era sombra,
había destellos en mis propios susurros.
Cuando me vi en el túnel, me abracé.
Me sostuve fuerte y prometí no soltarme.
Ahora me entiendo, me acepto,
y camino junto a mis pasiones y mis miedos.
La vida es distinta. Me siento más fuerte,
no solo en cuerpo, sino en mente.
Más consciente, más preparado,
con ganas de compartir mi voz.
Así como lo lees, me encontré.
El futuro es incierto,
pero si algo tengo claro,
es que ya no me perderé.

Let me you take to
A forbidden place
Where the water is gold
And stars are jade
Rainbow nation
Elevation
Reach another level
Of consciousness
The birds they talk
And we can fly
And swim simultaneously
In the silver sky
The fountain of youth
Is located there
The garden of fairies
Pairidaeza,Pari-desh
They say it's in the East
I differ
Where all are happy
With a delighted face
You can't reach there by a taxi
A moonlit lake near Mt.Cotopaxi
Shrouded in dark black snowflakes
You will here the primal music
A flute, of when this world began
They make lose your senses
And you'll find yourself in another land
Pairidaeza,Pari-desh
Imagine a portrait of heaven
Painted with infinite colours
And we ain't ever getting older
For death can't visit there
Birds singing such
Mellifluous tunes
Of when this universe
Was just an egg
Diamond laden streets
Live in your dreams
Fly and swim in these skies
Now, if you close your eyes
You can go there

I heard the chimes
of iniquitous wind
rush in upon
familial branches bent
in the middle
it sent the smallest stems
adrift
to spiral
as lost sons and daughters
captured in darkness
and forced to bow before
the lightning strikes
of tyranny

ya chao culiaa
para la wea
que no había naa
dejate de ser la desesperaa
que mimos mañas mañanas
pasan,
deja las vueltas las volaas
las mentiras la wea que te da
de atrapaa
lo típico.
asi que ahora borraa
quiero estar drogaa
abrasada ja
en brazos brasas
no te quiero naa
pero igual me teni pegaa
ya basta ah
perra sumisa confundida
no sé que decir más
solo se que ya no da
pa repetir la forma en la que va
voy vengo y no me fuí
mas encima de te crei
tan gigante en tu entrega
pero eri un orgasmo barato
un mal rato
un rico recuerdo
de cabra chica la navida
se acabaron las que no soy
lo que vendí
me gaste así
de nuevo ni me corrí
(en lugar, de, en)
te creiste mas de lo que conocí
no me wevi
salte de ahí
ya no estai invitado
no me digai que me queri
sabemos que es así
pero en error me repetí
te herí
me pasé
pero pendejo
eri.

It's smaller than I remember
Not that I possessed many things,
though,
it always seemed like everything could fit in here
even the things I scarcely use;
The woolen jumper that scratches my neck,
The mittens, now too small to fit,
The bandanna with a stain or two
Its strange how things get put away to not be seen again
That is what I am now
in this moment.
I must remind myself to air out my cupboard once I get out.
I'm breathing in the stale air my possessions do
It smells of worn wood and detergent
The smell of a home I've always known.
There is a faint rattling
I try and hold my legs together to keep them from shaking
I hate that all I can hear is my short breath
I don't want to move to rub my eyes again.
Silence
A thud.
Nothing
More thuds of weighted boots
Silence again
My legs are cramping now
That recent growth spurt didn't do me good.
My **** knees keeping knocking together
Mama always said I couldn't keep still
Why do I get the feeling
that once I leave my small cupboard
That I won't be the same again?

A man with the people's good at heart
And self inflicted gun shots from an AK-47
Lay dead in the palace of currency
American funded bombs drop overhead
Radio waves shiver through the air
Carrying his final words
Let not his sacrifice be in vain
Let us repair and rebuild avenues across which great men and women will walk
¡Viva Chile!
¡Viva el pueblo!
¡Viva los trbajadores!

*por mi parte soy o creo ser músico
escuchadora de la nada, visitante del mundo,
admiradora de los gatos, uno de los animales,
la interpelante, creyente que todo es interesante,
investigadora de los ojos, amante de las ondas,
bastante obstinada, pero cada vez tu ayudante
una habladora, la interruptora del silencio
de todos modos la guardia de tu gran secreto
simpatizante del arte, todo lo que es dulce,
las lenguas romanas y las puestas del sol
enemigo de la monotonía y el capitalismo
luchadora por todo lo que es un organismo*
