The Materials At Hand

I bought online a dozen sky lanterns to bring to Zahara de los Atunes this summer. My plan was to release them on the anniversary of my friend losing her husband and child in a car accident, and in memoriam to my friend who passed this year. But the TSA would not allow the sky lanterns to pass security.

Tin was on the beach in Cadiz and he dug a hole and filled it with wet sand and then piled it up and put a stone on it. “What are you doing?” I’ve made a grave for Dina. “How did you come up with that?” From Mimi’s grave. Mimi and Dina are here.
