love poems

I need to know
Is there a pot of gold at the
End of your rainbow?
–
Lets be searchers
Chart paths like rivers
Between snow covered hills
You are mexico
And we will pretend this is 1691
I am Armando Castillo – the explorer
Show me the way.
–
i’ve heard it said that Sex is better in Spanish
And sometimes when I am your
Muy bonita negra senoria – we ride the waves together
Until even the walls sing
Harder chicana
Put it in your boca
Ooh si senora
Don’t stop….
But besos do not erase battle scars
Even the walls know that
When I am not your sweetheart
I am your chula
Your bitch
The sorry muthafucka who dreams too many dreams
And when the waves that we ride
Crash together in your eyes
We speak the universal language
and
no, Fucking is no better in Spanish….
–
I am the thought that you need to remember
You are the addiction (impulse) that I want to forget
And that is a contradiction
–
If only we could live in the darkroom
Exist in the blinding light of the flash
Become still lives
Be the smiles in the photographs
–
I want to……………………
But I am afraid
That if I start
Then I will never stop
And then there will be two mighty rivers with mouths in Mississippi
