The Student
I wish
I didn’t have to go
to school, to
study.
But
my mom says I need to
so I can have a
future.
Today
I tore my jeans;
I think I’ll just throw them out;
I can always buy
another.
I don’t understand
Why
do people say I’m lucky?
I do nothing
But assignments and homework.
I’m never free.

The Worker
i wish
i had the opportunity
to read, to
write
but
my mama, she needs me
i am her only
future
today
i grip the sewing needle tight
stitch after stitch
i have to fix
another
i do not understand
why
do people say they are unlucky?
i do nothing
but sew and stitch and fix
i am never free
