"lupita" poems
Man, my head hurts,
it feels like
I've been hit by a freight train!
What's that you say?
It was raining
kinky-women
everywhere.
I'm a super freak,
I lost complete control,
got out of hand,
did a striptease
in Tijuana last night!?
**** that sunlight's bright,
please close those blinds!
What's that you say?
I got in a little fight
in Tijuana last night!?
No wonder
I've got this swelling,
a huge black-eye!
Hey, has anybody
seen my wallet
or my skivvies!?
Jesus, who's matchbook is this!?
"Pepe's Donkey Shack"!
Who the hell's Lupita!?
And you say I'm a freak!?
It looks like you're the one
who tweaked
in Tijuana last night!!!

you are so beautiful
*such grace
in your words, power spills forth
with magnitude*
you are so beautiful
*may your light shine
beyond
all boundaries*
YOU are so beautiful

I blew in from the camino
like a wild tumbleweed,
the smell of iquana
hung around me
like a dark cloud
as I slumped onto
the barstool &
ordered a tequila
with the worm.
The mariachi was as loud
as thirty babies screaming,
I knew it wasn't me dreaming.
In the darkness & haze,
I used my dynamite-eyes
to scan the spinning room
& I caught Lupita looking.
We ended up
on the wilder side of town
that night,
I fought three banditos
and a chupacabra,
beat the snot out of all
of them.
If it wasn't for
this Betty Boop tattoo
on my ***
that classy senorita
would have married me,
lucky me.

Saguaros stood
like spiny-sentinels
as I sped along the Camino,
alone,
top down.
Warm winds &
tequila-breath
burned my shot-eyes
when I first spotted
the thumbing Lupita,
way south of Ensenada
on good 'ole 1.
Her graceful
toothy-smile
under her full lips
seemed gracious
as I pulled up
alongside her,
kicked the door open.
She hopped in
& we catapulted
with her hair streaming &
brown-skin shining
in the falling sun.
We hit high speeds
smiling
as we continued
south, driving
into the coming night.
Twinkling-stars
& static-filled
La Bamba-tunes
kept us company.
We discussed
sacred-mysteries
in broken languages,
later, counted
each others toes,
rubbed noses
in my bedroll.
In the morning,
she was gone
left me a note
& the ruffled rose
she had pinned
in her raven-black hair.
As I drove off
in a dreamy-state,
somewhat disappointed,
a spiraling one,
a lone black bird
trailed behind me,
I'm sure it was her.
Soon, she disappeared
from my rear view memory,
but never out of my mind.

A Queen like me is
Stronger and Wiser
Than who I use to
Be.
The pain I endured
Made me
WHO I AM.
I Am a
Brown skinned
Black is beautiful
Queen.
With short naturally
Curly hair
Like my sister
Miss Lupita.
I have the
Golden touch
But my intelligence
Is even
Greater.
A Queen like me isn’t
Perfect.
But my values are
Worth It.
And my potentials are
Endless.
A Queen like me learned
How to love myself
Unconditionally.
Because I am a
QUEEN.

Stormtroopers
descended on Baja,
rolled over
the disrepaired highways
under the crescent moon,
both crazier than loons.
Dressed in full battle gear,
our billfolds
were stuffed to the hilt
with pesos,
mouths watered
for some aged tequila
& worms.
We met Rosa & Lupita
outside the cantina,
the drinking place
guarded by ten-year olds
carrying machine guns
covered with duct tape.
In the morning,
we were penniless
with hurt heads
& sore feet,
the amigas were gone.

Anejo shots started
a tempest swirling,
locomotive-steps winding
under the spinning-lights,
faces poked in and out
of the crowd of crazed-pagans,
undulating in sweat,
nicotine-breath & tequila,
dreams of freedom.
Lupita hollered her name
like all the rest with
the same name,
phantom-dancers
squeezing each other
for romance,
before the stars settled,
the sun rose on the zona
of broken-roses.

It's truly a happy place,
scores of turistas
sitting
under the relentless
sun,
freedom club warriors
inhaling fifty-year-old anejo,
gulping those mezcal stingers
& imbibing golden
beverages
believing every girl
named Lupita
professes
true love.

Lupita,
Teach me that the black girl
Is more than just, that –
More than just,
A **** provoking short-skirt
Tight-thick-thighs temptation
More than just,
A slim waist, supple flesh
And ‘shuga’
Stare into my ignorant eye,
And teach me
Lupita.

Today was okay,
I mean I got an A.
My tickets are confirmed.
My friends said they love me.
A guy said I was hot.
Some strangers said I look like Lupita.
I laughed with some people.
I got all my homework done.
But he called me a *****
Today wasn't okay.

The tears run down and fall off my nose
I hide in my attic where nobody goes
I clench my fists
And gasp for air
My head is pounding
But i don’t care
No matter what i do
Depression always pulls me back
‘No you can’t be happy’ it says
‘The only way you’ll ever be happy is if you’re dead’
I shake my head and pull my hair
I dig my nails into my skin
And watch my arms bleed
Trying to fight these demons
I’m not gonna let them ******* win..
Because of all of this I don’t feel alive it doesn’t make sense
I just wanna be alright I ******* hate this
Please let me go, let me be happy it’s been
8 ******* years please let me live my life in peace,
I’ve been chained up like a ******* dog
By depression and anxiety
They’re both slowly killing me they don’t let anyone or even myself try to save me
Please...all of this needs to stop..
Depression makes me feel like a piece of ****
I feel like a burden to my friends..even to my own ******* family
When I was younger, before my cousin killed himself he said: “Depression is like a big fur coat
It's made of dead things but it still keeps me warm.”
I didn’t know what he meant..
But just as depression and anxiety started to consume I finally got it..
I’ll admit..one of these days, I don’t know when
I’m gonna eventually give up,
Put a gun against my head and pull the ******* trigger..
