    People of Central American origin as well as Mexicans cross the Mexican border into the United States looking for "Shelter" from poverty and persecution. Central Americans, including Guatemalans, cross into Mexico by riding across a river in Chiapas, for example. They all ride a train, "The Beast", to reach the Mexican-American border. Many are killed or injured severely as they ride "The Beast". Either on their trip to the Northern Border or on North Mexico, many fell prey to criminals, Narco-traffickers, or corrupt Mexican officials. They (young or old) are used for money in the business of Human trafficking as cheap labor or prostitutes. Many die.... This atrocity has been described fully in the book titled "The Beast" by a young Salvadorian writer: Oscar Martinez. May God Blessed Them.

    INHUMANITY

    It is morning, Juan wakes up first, always, His window displays forests and mountains, But most of all beautiful Guatemalan harmony: colors and sounds. Sadness o ertook him at once, !aria, !aria " He called as he turned his sight to his wife# His !aria continued to sleep, $nd Juan retold the whole story again, %o !aria, inside his mind, &%he 'orth( is our final destination, %here is no longer bread, water, or air, 'o future under the boot of the )ppressor. %hey walked to the !e*ican ri er to cross, &+l ,amino & to follow is so long and cruel, Both afraid of darkness and pain, -et hopeful under the stars abo e. But once there, e en water turned into ice# !y husband, said !aria to Juan, %his land is full of shadows not brothers, .hen do we reach &/a Bestia( 0 Juan ignored her pleas for an answer, He trembled with the thought of !aria and &%he Beast(. Juan and !aria felt a rush of warm air, )n both of their faces and chests, $s they rode atop &%he Beast(. But Juan older than !aria, ,ould sense the smell of suffering and pain, Inside the Belly of &%he Beast &. He could hear as a whisper, %he cries of the mutilated, $long the steel rails of pain: &!isericordia "(. !aria was first to set foot on the ground. .e are now so near she thought, %o freedom and 1oy, close to the prosperous 'orth. But Juan knew better, &%he Beast( ne er wishes to loosen its grip, $re they not of my own kind, he thought, %he ones who seem to pursue us 0

    %hey first came looking for Juan, But he refused to gi e !aria away, $re you not cousins of mine 0 He asked. He could only feel the intense heat, )f the bullet thrown from the gun, Inside his ,hest close to Heart. 'arcos, 2olice corruption, does it matter 0 &$sk the Gringos up 'orth, %he .hy(, he was told. Juan could only pray a few moments: &3ios, 3ios, ,uando acabaras %u, ,on el asesinato de $bel, %u hi1o, 2or4ue el triunfo de ,ain siempre 0 !aria was suffering, %he pain caused her to drift between the dreams and the real, She knew the assassins had taken her across !e*ican land, Into the 'orth she had hoped to see#. !aria, !aria, !y daughter, It is I. &3ios mio, me has abandonado "( &!adre de 3ios, donde estas0 & 3aughter, where are you 0 Her dreaming showed her a sign up on a hill, &Hollywood(, its neon lights spelled. !y /ord, %hey ha e turned me into a sla e %hey ha e made me into a whore#. !aria was forced to awaken, She thought she heard %he .ord: &!aria, this is your /ord God, Blessed are %hee who suffers in !y 'ame(. $nd she felt the pain of the needle, 3eep inside her eins, and She hurt no more, e er again.
