The hope of prosperity turned into tombs for children, men and women<span>--</span>melting flesh in the desert heat, until they become each other's deathbed. These songs are vengeful screams, shattering a mother's soul, transmuting a young woman in a deliverer of Death. Even a well-meaning coyote's hands are bloody from brutal lessons to save the young.
