While I Was Walking My Way Back Home Poem by RIC BASTASA

While I Was Walking My Way Back Home



a fat woman
sits by the alley
with a blond hair
dyed
not natural for her
race
her eyes are
chinks
and her built as small
she is the usual Asian
woman
mindful of
who passes by
cannot resist talking
and putting
in contempt
a fellow Asian
like her.

i wave a hand at her
and call her
sister.
