Dear America the Great, I Still Love Being a Latina
I am what you call a latina
Just another mexican niña
I am what you call a pansexual
Once again another ignored label
America the Great
I am what you hate
Another kid that makes you hesitate
Why don't you admit that I make you afraid?
Afraid that I’ll murder or rape your children
Or are you truly
Afraid that I’ll be better than you at ‘your’ job
I am your threat
I make you break a sweat
Is she going to take my job?
Will she go to my son's college?
I am 5 feet
You want me 6 feet under
I am 5 feet
This latina will steal your thunder
America the Great
The latinos, you hate
They're creating poems
Soon you will know them
They will put you on the spot
While they take another university slot
America the Great
Ignorance has become the new division sign
