el Día de la Independencia

Beto ‘Riginale

with a coin in
        hand
for the ferry—
        man
we cross the
        river
escape the
        narrows
ahead, the
        free life

el Dia de la Independencia is Mexican Independence Day,
16 September; however, the thought is for all those
who fought for freedom.
