Only identifying as one race
Half mexican
Half white
But rolling with my mexican
side day and night
Only really familiar
To a fresh scent of a conches
My loud voice overpowers my white side
Never showing any hate or disrespecting
To my white side
Feeling more comfortable with my mexican side
Every day every min every sec
Feeling like my white side is a new
Book i never opened
But still riding with my mexican side
Never letting go to the side that make me
The side that make me loud
But still show my love to both my side
Now little by little get to know my white side
But still say i'm mexican
Never changing that
Still identifying as mexican
Still say i'm full no matter what
But not really forgetting both my white side
I really like how even though you associate with your Mexican side, you still remember your white side and I think that was really nice
ReplyDeletei meant you associate to your mexican side more than your white side
DeleteEven though your half I liked how you still tried to talk about both in an even way.
ReplyDeleteI liked how you explained how you showed that even though you more identify with your Mexican side that you don't forget that your white as well and that will never change.
ReplyDeleteGreat Job!
I think your poem was really good! It explained exactly how you felt which I respected a lot. I also liked how you described how your "Mexican" side would feel.
ReplyDeleteGood Job!
I loved how you said that,you along with the people around you may see one part of you, yet you make sure that you never forget the importance of the other side as well.
ReplyDeleteKhaleelah- I like how you are opening up to yourself to your Mexican culture and really appreciating that. Good job!
ReplyDeletenice job! i loved how you acknowledged that you had two sides to your race and you admitted that you do overpower yourself with your mexican side. it takes a lot of courge to stand up and say that. great job again!
ReplyDeleteI liked how your poem talked about how you will always know to remember both sides of your heritage and that you will always know both sides are good either way. I also liked the figurative language you used to describe your white side.
ReplyDeletei like how you were talking about how you identify with more than one race but both of your races and how you are proud
ReplyDeleteBraun-You revealing your culture and identity as the main purpose and title of your poem. I thought that showing us who your really helps the theme take place more effectively.
ReplyDeletei liked how you expressed you identity and both of your sides really great job -julienne
ReplyDeleteGood job george!! i like how yours was about your race as well and how you talked about how sometimes your white side over powers your Mexican side it was pretty clever how you talked about your Mexican side will never only define you but both your white and Mexican side will.
ReplyDeletethe story was about her mexican side was overpowering her white side, not the other way around.
Deletethats what i meant to type.
DeleteI like how you represented your Mexican culture. Most people don't acknowledge their culture.
ReplyDeleteDarryl- liked how you said you are 100 percent Mexican
ReplyDeletei love how you have respect from both sides of where you come from
