Mark Thanks for the poem: it should be read at official functions. Can you tell me more about this wall? Does the wall kill, or the people who guard it? Best Alison > In my pocket of the world Cuban >poetry has been effectively embargoed and there is a border of silence >largely separating all of Latin America from the English and >French-speaking north, most acutely on the border between Alta and Baja >California, now demarcated by a steel wall that this year has killed just >short of 400 Mexicans in my county alone.
