Nobody got México, as essence of Life itself it is ungettable, it is 'to be' and not 'to have' - México is that within each of us that makes the sunshine a little warmer, the beer a little cooler, the ladies more beautiful, the jokes funnier, makes more joyous the gentle ripple of children's laughter and the tails of puppy dogs peeing on carpets to wag more briskly
The spanish, yes they hung around some, did a little rapin', a little killin', a little enslavin', a little robbin', gave us a language with a pluperfect subjunctive and infected us with their genes such as they were able, then they just seemed to wander off one day to the music of our cannon ... no biggie ... now we the mexica who have always been and who shall always be are back to homegrown screwups as usual ... así es |
