Cultura Notes

I am from the hood.

Where single parents grew.

So…that was

not new.

Multicultural.

Cultura Notes.

Cultura Normál?

One night a gang of Nazis came

in a bus –

bottles flying, blood on hands.

The guys fought the scum;

“Oh, my fucking God”;

These guys didn’t duck out

and,

the troublemakers disappeared.

We gathered—

red-haired

and black- haired boys,

a blonde girl with a hoarse voice,

curly brunettes as me—

after the attack

and I deeply felt

that it was

us.
