Grandmother

[tenochtitlan]

In the metate
My tireless grandmother
Ground
Ajo, tomate, chile, y cebolla
With every deft pounding of the molcajete
Did she
Lovingly
Pound into my heart, soul, and blood
The sorrows and struggles
Joys and triumphs
Of my people
Los indios y los mestizos
Para mi gente mi corazon sonrie
For my people my heart smiles
