but nopales growing on both sides
& on each side tarantulas walked onto
windy desertland & obeyed no law
of trespass nor any good walls fencing
bitter neighbors
but look how desiccated dead bodies w/ pennies on those eyes
apologize
& WALLS & WALLS & still more WALLS concrete WALLS & razorwire
& send yr apologies & mark yr crooked smirk remove
those wrinkles from round yr eyes’ corners
& don’t prick yr humid Amurkan tongue tripping
over hot long vowelly hills or sink
in rivers rolling airrrrrrrrress
into twilights of ethnicity
as yet—as bounded to ethnicitas--
fuzzier—less salient—w/ whiteness & leisuretime & symbolic ethnicity for all--
bounded & still less relevant to everyday social life / sense
of connection to ancestral Makesicken
past fades in twilight /
& stars fell in Techno-ch-titlán
& these poetricks cd never be art--
solar-mente folkloricantos--
