I got home from seeing Pixar's Coco (2017) at the Capitol with
spatch to discover that my poems "די ירושה" and "Shadow-Song" have been accepted by Uncanny Magazine. The title of the former means "The Inheritance" in Yiddish; I wrote it on Erev Rosh Hashanah. The latter is a ghost poem for Elisabeth Hauptmann; I wrote it on a train to New York. I hope to write about Coco because I loved it, with its music and families and its underworld as deep as a cenote and vivid as marigolds, but right now I am just pleased with this much better ending for a day that began with waking from nightmares to migraine.
