  • The stub of a lit taper candle burns brightly on a bed of cempasúchil, or Mexican marigolds.
    The dead aren’t really dead; their stories are perpetually being told by the world around us.

  • The corner of a gravestone, which is bedecked with toys and flowers and a fake butterfly stuck in the grass.
