    The Stone Horse Commentary It is obvious that Lopez has a passion for history‚ especially when it comes to the cultural aspects in history. Having said this‚ it’s no surprise that when cultural history is being destroyed‚ Lopez is writing to bring awareness to the problems faced by unguarded cultural artifacts in the Mojave‚ and Sonoran deserts.

    Aliona Fezoua My Expert Commentary ‘The Bat’ – Theodore Roethke: By day the bat is cousin to the mouse. He likes the attic of an aging house. His fingers make a hat about his head. His pulse beat is so slow we think him dead. He loops in crazy figures half the night Among the trees that face the corner light. But when he brushes up against a screen‚ We are afraid of what our eyes have seen: For something is amiss or out of place When mice with wings can wear a human face.

Pictures are almost a way to freeze time and reflect on who we were then and who we are now. This photograph is not much of an experience‚ but a reflection on my life as a child itself. I had no idea back then that I would be who
