Yreina Flores Ortiz - “La Chingona” artwork and poem
 Today, I will greet the sun as my relative and give the morning my full attention.
I will say “I love you” into the mirror and draw my eyeliner extra straight.
I will not call myself fat because everything in my closet will look good on me.
I will rock my huge Latina hips like the blessing they are.
Watch out!  I might even wear heels.
Today, I will not hand out one unnecessary apology. Today, I will be Chingona!
