I was born in the mouth of the Rio Bravo/Rio Grande and acknowledge that I who I am because I walk with my contemporaries and with my ancestors, listening, leading, following, transcribing, dictating, dreaming, working in the dust of endless fields with all of them at once and separately ignoring them individually and collectively.
