I Felt Like A Gringo

a ton of white boy guilt, that's my problem -

obstacle to joy (one reason for drugs)

slept on a mexican beach, slept in trash

(american trash) thinking too much can ruin a good time.

I asked a mexican who

ran a bar for americans "who won"

I said "the election?" he laughed and I felt

like a gringo - we paid for a song and they had fun with us.

why can't you buy

a good time? why are there soldiers in the streets?

why did I spend the fourth

in someone else's country?
