Fast Food

(Mexicanization Of America)

at her age
la vieja gets more excited about walmart than about sex

a teenage chicana is texting as she drives
no, not about the Alamo, wey

the punk kid tells his suburban tia
where to go ( he thinks he’s a punk)

my finger pulls the trigger
again and again

but its only a poem
it harms nomas the weak

dogs have four
patines, ‘mano

the mamasota crosses the street
on her fists

a pendejo sells crack to a pendejo
under the golden arches

...........................................................
la vieja-the wife
wey-most often a friendly but sarcastic
way(no pun intended) of addressing a buddy
tia-aunt
nomas-only(can't have two onlyies right
next to each other,verdad?)
patines-rollerskates
'mano-brother
mamasota-extra-sexy woman
pendejo-idiot
