Lalo Malo

Pan o tortillas
yo no se

I was at the Alamodome
when the poet laureate read her poem

I was by the San Antonio River
calling it the Rio Bronco

I was having huevos rancheros
at Rancho Guero

I was at Mission San Jose
with Josefina Facilmente

I was on the Westside
with those who still abide

I was eating tacos de barbacoa
with the ghost of Caracol

pan o tortillas
don't make me laugh said Lalo Malo

before he threw the bread
at me
