the ultimate case of irony...

I dreamed about the light-skinned woman who loved me unconditionally,
yes, that last word is great yet horrific,
of all the things i could ask you,
i asked you to find me a date with your comadre,
you said you know none,
you asked me if i found someone,
i thought you meant your sister
who is amigos con derechos but not officially married,
i said, "tu hermana es muy chica para mi"
as you went into sign language class.
why did i not see you,
the thin, light skinned woman of my dreams!
how stupid could i be?
she was right in front of my face
but i could not see
can the english teacher
now understand irony?
is it too late for the truth?
