by Mary Nelson
One went away a mere boy
But came back a wise and strong man.
One came back a little coy,
But he also was a huge fan.
One was a caballero;
One was a servant.
One owned a ranchero;
One was observant.
Their friendship ran very deep;
They seemed like they were brothers.
To watch them alone together is a treat,
But they play their parts in front of others.
They both care very deeply;
If necessary they would die for one another.
The two of them are always careful
Not to hurt their fellow sisters or brothers.
They both are true servants of the people.
One man a servant, the other idle and rich.
Together they work without a glich
To free the oppressed and make it all right.
