Americanness They recognize me as one of them nowadays. Somehow, somewhere, I must’ve lost it. That glowing tan that set me as outsider. Now, they speak to me unflinching; As I seem no longer newly arrived. Today, am the one thoroughly shocked. Since I hardly expect to be talked to it in it. Someway, I’ve…

añorar la lengua materna
Bueno, hoy le toca al español ser el último en quien pienso, bueno, quizá no. Siempre pienso en todos modos en español. Lo malo es que no me queda nada que relatar ya. ¿O si?
