In the music video it looks like Shakira is dying. / I want to die for you /  though we’ve just met, / give you my bones to help you stand taller / and my feet for you to walk on when yours are worn.

\ \ n. 1. The Spanish word for “meat”/ flesh / like mine, imported from south of the border/ working hard / to satisfy mouths craving someone else’s blood and sweat.

I carry the scent / of an old lemon picker’s hands / of a little girl’s bare legs / running through summer weeds
