Dias de los Muertos/Days of the Dead (Nov.1 & 2) is a big thing in certain neighborhoods in San Diego- esp. the ones with large Latino communities. It can be a lot of fun. My friends and I like to wander around in a big group through my neighborhood, holding lighted lanterns and candles, and ohh and ah over the beautiful altars/ofrendas set up on porches or in yards. Sometimes, the people living at the house preside over the altar, and they hand out a little tequila and churros, and everyone greets everyone with appreciation and love.

Remembering
Listening to the poetry in the voices of California and the words of songs that run down the spine of the state while I read the voices of grief in poetry about Palestine in the key of occupation.
