Literature Text
At times, I regret my etic perspective,
with its hues of fish-belly,
ceviche and flour tortillas,
white on white.
I will always be warned:
“You know that’s really spicy, right?”
by those concerned for my safety.
And sometimes I pretend I can’t take the heat after all,
because the laughter that it brings
makes me feel almost emic.

Another piece taken from the poetic ethnography I'm working on.
It's been a valuable experience, I think, living in a place where I am an ethnic minority. Not the same as experiencing being non-white, of course, or living in a place where no one speaks my language, but it's still a small step toward understanding.
Also I am not even bothering with DA's new tagging system. Ever. xP
