Langauge Barrier

Spent 3 weeks in Columbia
No more fluent in Spanish
Than when I left
A woman
Ask me for help
Could not understand
Thought she wanted some money
Americano tendencies kick right in
when back in the states
someone
always wants something for nothing
she looked homeless
that's enough
to be judgemental
when all she wanted
was a bit of help
figuring out how
to put more air in her car's tires
