Peru and the peasants were in town from the hills to vote

Chichería
Red
plastic bag like refuse marks the chichería,
its
benches half the breadth of my behind.
This
shed I think was built in just a day –
a
few good kicks would turn it to debris,
and
yet I think the place must serve up hope.
I’m
seated with the rest to seek my share.
A
chichería is an
unlicensed
establishment
selling
the indigenous people’s homemade
beer,
usually based in corn.
