MOJADO (damp)

Damp, "Mojado" is the name for the people who left from 

their countries, cities and homes.

Always people have hope to improve their lifestyle because 

the people feel something bad in their countries or consider 

life in America is better than life back in their home country. 

Life is not good or better , this is so hard for them.

For this reason many people from Central America, such as 

Guatemala, Mexico, El Salvador, Honduras, can leave their 

countries for the United States, because they consider 

the USA a better economy.

Many groups of people, especially man, always than 

have more opportunities to take a charge train from 

Mexico, specifically with a unique hope to arrive in 

the USA. However many different situations are in 

their way. from good to bad. Their life is like 

something sweet and salty.

On their way, first can they find people who are 

called "Coyotes" who help show them how   easy it is 

to take a train, where they arrive, when find them 

can found police and how much money need to pay 

they for this information. 

When the "Mojado" can take a train, they maybe found 

by somebody, (that maybe good, but sometimes they 

are thief and steal everything) if the people don't allow 

that, the thief will throw people down from the train. 

This is sad and dangerous because the people can die 

from it.   Sometimes their bodies are cut by the wheels 

of the train.

Everything changes, When the train pass by some 

village. This is   because many people are waiting for 

them and give some food to the people who are in the 

train (the people are on top of the charge train). in this 

form can eat and everything turn from dark to white or 

blue.

On their way, the people on the train can feel cold or 

hot depending on the region. They can also smell 

trees or fruity flavors, and see all colors like green 

in the mountains and transparent water or just 

beautiful blue sky.

When the train arrive in San Antonio - Mexico, which 

is the frontier with the   USA, none of the people 

have a permit. If the police see them, they can send 

back to their original countries.   If they didn't get 

caught the police, they will cross the river, then walk 

one or two days with the "Coyote" to a house.
