I am from curry to “empanadas de pollo”,
From Shaan Massala and Baby-G
to Cachantun and
Gatorade
I am from the hot sunny weather
to the nice cold breeze
I am from the tulsis to the Aloe Vera,
the green leaves to the sharp small plant
I am from arranged marriage and dark brown hair
to shoe moneys and light brown skin
From Rajesh and Jasmina
I am from bad vision and small feet
I am from the 5 vedas to the Bible
I am from Chile and India,
Empanadas and Choripan to Dall and Dosa
I am from Chile, Chipana 2040 full a memories
and pictures still not ready to be sold.
This is a great poem that surprised me greatly. I did not know that you were from Chile and less from India because you kept saying that you weren't from there. This follows the sheet, the sheet that Ms. Meadows gave out, to the letter. It is a great poem and I see no spelling mistakes.
ReplyDeletevery well done, I love how you compare and contrast, and how you say that you are from multiple places
ReplyDeleteYES, NICELY DONE, BUT I WANT YOU TO DIG DEEPER AND TELL US MORE.
