The Chicano Shoe
The Chicano shoe is constructed
of pain and grief
bound up by tears
which slip off the eye
bound up by the sweat
of the back
the leathery hands
which reach into the heart
the womb of the Chicana
which softens the blow
the fiestas
which wipe away the blood
or bring it forth
once again
the Chicano shoe---
it's not for everyone.
