the hold up


my Mexican novio,

straight out of Mexico City.

we dated for the second week

of my two-week vacation,

we got naked and rolled

around in bed downstairs


he was no bueno at kissing

i thought i might lose my virginity

to him, then i thought no,

i'm pretty sure i shouldn't

lose it to a Mexican.

tomato, potato


i spoke english to him,

he spoke spanish to me

we understood each other

sometimes, but we tried not to do things

that involved talking


we mostly just made out.

some nights we'd go with friends to the local pool hall,

held hands down the cobblestones,

one time we went ATVing

i drove, he couldn't understand

the concept of shifting gears.


he showed me what to do if i got held up in the street

you say, soy tuya.

that's it, you say i'm yours and they take your money

and you don't get shot.

he put his finger-gun to my head

say, soy tuya

i said it, we made out for a little

and kept walking


he slept over the night before i left

i had a really early flight.

when it was time to go,

i was squirming like i was ready to fuck

he had bad breath per usual

he begged and begged:

no quiero que te vayas!

we made out


okay bye
