Star Tracalada

To think
that el ocho patas

had once believed
in revolution

and had grown
a mustache to prove it

and donned
a sombrero

wrote the
mandatory poems

about La Raza
had praised

the barrio
re-invented abuelas

learned to spik
the lingo

but the revolution
did not materialize

the transporter
must have malfunctioned

maybe Scotty
was on the potty
