Compare Borrowed Bones by Luis J. Rodriguez, Paperback | Indigo Chapters

Foreword by Martín Espada This chapbook collection offers new poems from the prolific career of a community leader, activist, and healer. Luis J. Rodríguez’s work asks profound questions of us as readers and fellow humans, such as, \"If society cooperates, can we nurture the full / and healthy development of everyone?\" In his introductory remarks, Martín Espada describes the poet as a man engaged in people and places: \"Luis Rodríguez is a poet of many tongues, befitting a city of many tongues. He speaks English, Spanish, ‘Hip Hop,’ ‘the Blues,’ and ‘cool jazz.’ He speaks in ‘mad solos.’ He speaks in ‘People’s Sonnets.’ He speaks in the language of protest. He speaks in the language of praise.\" | Borrowed Bones by Luis J. Rodriguez, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
