Note: This poem was written as part of the Southwest Writing Project in Laredo in 1997 and chosen by the National Writing Project Committee to appear in the broadcast of Rural Voices Radio III (2003) on National Public Radio. I read the poem for the program and it was broadcast nation-wide. The CD’s were produced and distributed in the U.S.A.
