for your Tito Rey
behind the two of you
is the Statue of Liberty
the man with the yellow shirt
and short hair is acting for an explanation
but you do not mind it
you look at the camera and give
the best smile that you can
muster in these hard
trying times
i enlarged the picture
and focus on the smile
and honestly i think
it is
fake
p.s. the tinted sunglasses
is more of a metaphor for hiding the
obvious truth in your eyes
that life is not easy
and every cent has an equivalent
deprivation.
