I had a thought,
I knew it wasn’t right–
you’re too polite to be white.
You aren’t quite Caucasian
but a little bit Asian
and sabor de Mexico.

It’s the way you say "Hello
I hope you’re having a great day."
And a compliment or two
goes a long way.

Tell me what you like about me
and the things that I do
to you.
Send me **** pics on your phone.
Tell me you’ll be right over
when I’m home.

Deep emotional conversation
Is what I have with my best friend.
Sometimes I like to compartmentalize
and don’t need to know who, what or when.

Some salsa is nice--
or soy sauce with rice.
I’m lutefisk and apple strudel
and I’m hungry for  spice.
