I’m more than rice and beans
Soy latina
but what does that mean?
Spanish is what I speak
but it doesn’t define my
ethnicity
Roots
Part
Indigena
European
African
All come together
in one tree
Accents unique
in 20 countries
some leaving it all behind
in pursuit of the American Dream
Spanglish starts
to drip from
our lips
But the rhythmn of el tambor
hits the soul
unconsciously moving
the hips
Reminder of home
Soy latina
But what does it mean?
It means
Love to all mi gente
Del pasado
futuro
y presente
Amor a la patria
Que viva la raza
