Book High

Few things are better than walking around a used books store. Half Price Books was overwhelming. Here's what I bought:

• After Aztlan: Latino Poets of the Nineties edited by Ray Gonzalez
• In Mad Love and War by Joy Harjo
• Dark Field of the Republic by Adrienne Rich
• The Collected Poems of Sylvia Plath
• The Aeneid
• Borders by Pat Mora
• Signing; Signed English: A Basic Guide by Harry Bornstein & Karen L. Saulnier
• Learn American Sign Language flashcards

...and now to find bookshelf space.

I'm in love with a poet. Son mi vicio.

Recently, I have spent numerous hours stalking and reading this guy.

Check out his work here.

Un Altar para "El Chino"

It was so much fun to make this. It was for my father, Guadalupe Barrios. Or "El Chino" (The Curly-haired One) to those close to him, after his curly hair.
