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! -Yreina Flores Ortiz CAM: More info on Yreina Flores Ortiz visit (HERE) Signed and dated “La Chingona” giclee prints (Here)

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!

-Yreina Flores Ortiz
