Like a cigarette after intimacy, but we are barely touching. How is this so?
Spanglish, the film, about the pure romance and love of Flor and John. A haiku
we settled the ground,
“The floor will eat us alive”
Our kiss, seal up cracks.

My New Book is Finally Here
My poetry collection Beautiful and Brutal Things is done. It's actually done and finally published over 270 pages. Over a year of my life went into this book. More than a year, really. Long days at my computer, sometimes seven days a week because I couldn't stop even when I probably should have. Then two months of editing that felt harder than the writing itself. But it's finished, and I'm still standing, and the book is real.
