How would she know
when she went to Mexico
to live with a family for six weeks 
and take classes as well
and become totally immersed in the tongue
that on the night before her formal classes started
the handsome muscular man in the club 
from whom she learned the lambada,
and who danced with her,
legs and crotches intertwined,
would be her language instructor?

How do you say  "blush"  in Spanish?
