Set in both Mexico and the United States, these poems are about the human condition -- a little boy dies while diving off a cliff for tourists, a doctor finds cancer cells under a microscope and considers their effect on the patient, a five-year old sells Chiclets on the street. Because the poet does not back away from difficult topics, his readers are allowed an unshielded vision of the world that leads to enlightenment. Some poems are in Spanish.
