ALL WE ARE TOLD NOT TO TOUCH explores the places and moments where we are told danger exists: the rogue waves of the ocean, the unwelcoming side of a border, a street where girls are forbidden to play and the implacable grief surrounding a brother's death, among others. Each poem unfolds with a desire for what is out of reach. The poet's travels and meditations come to life in both urban and rural spaces such as San Francisco, Paris, Barcelona, as well as in villages in France and Mexico. All are interconnected points of the spiritual, physical and sensual journeys required to love and heal.
