escuchar me

escucharme I heard him say

hot latin vibes

a halo not of God but tequilla

made him look angelic



in my eyes





His senorita was swaying beside him

his look was for her only

lashes that could sweep away all my dreams



I stood tall, or as tall as I could

did he notice I was there at all



Te escucho, I whispered

no louder than my battered heart would allow

the sultry siren held me in her gaze now

then disregarded me as nondescript



I cradled my hands to my swollen womb

I listened to he

the one with the halo

this his child



my destiny.



Would he know me now

I thought not

just another senorita



Anyway the tequilla was far more palatable.
