Accessioning is an index of lives encased in museum glass, and then brought to life. This is a pamphlet of poems about the stories that we tell ourselves, the memories that we construct, and the ways that we value and devalue people, animals and objects alike.
Meet Balam, a boy who could be a cat. Meet Lluvia, a girl who could be the dawn. Balam and Lluvia are siblings who catch fireflies, bid farewell to their pet fish in the bathroom, and wait for Raton Perez to collect their teeth. In Balam and Lluvia's House, the secret tastes and sounds of the everyday are waiting to be found.
