p.80-96

The invisible skull on the desolate hills of every california town opens its jaws or arranged imprisonments and decapitation. But who listens?" (Herrera 83)
I think this means the invisible skull who represents people from california opining its jaw which means opens its arm for different people but then makes them suffer. The skull also represents the darkness of California and the Jaw/ mouth of the skull is the sentiment of prison that the imigrants or counter culture people live when they live in california.

"a few lefty wanna-be Latinos dissipates and re-emerges."Herrera 86"
This short quote shows herrera's proudness of his county. He talks about how certain americans imitate their habits and language to be like real latinos. It's the same thing as people trying to be black... that start talking like them and all. It is very explicitto todays society I think.
