Montia

Montia is a genus of plants in the purslane family, Montiaceae. Species in this genus are known generally as miner's lettuce or minerslettuce.

Montia perfoliata, the species for which the term miner's lettuce was coined, is distributed throughout the Mountain West of North America in moist soils and prefers areas which have been recently disturbed. The species got its name due to its use as a fresh salad green by miners in the 1849 Gold Rush in California.

Some members formerly of this genus are now considered to belong in Claytonia. The genus is being reorganized by taxonomists.

Selected species:

Montia bostockii - Bostock's miner's lettuce

Montia chamissoi - water miner's lettuce, toadlily

Montia dichotoma - dwarf miner's lettuce

Montia diffusa - spreading miner's lettuce, branching montia

Montia fontana - annual water miner's lettuce, water-blinks

Montia howellii - Howell's miner's lettuce

Montia linearis - narrowleaf miner's lettuce

Montia parvifolia - littleleaf miner's lettuce

Clandestino

by: Manu Chao

Solo voy con mi pena
sola va mi condena
correr es mi destino
para burlar la ley
Perdido en el corazon
de la grande Babilon,
me dicen el clandestino
por no llevar papel
Pa'una ciudad del Norte
yo me fui a trabajar,
mi vida la deje
entre Celta y Gibraltar
soy una raya en el mar
fantasma en la ciudad,
mi vida va prohibida
dice la autoridad
Solo voy con mi pena
sola va mi condena
correr es mi destino
por no llevar papel
Perdido en el corazon
de la grande Babilon,
me dicen el clandestino
yo soy el quiebra ley
