Glimpses

<p><em>Glimpses: A Poetic Memoir (Through the MDR Generator) </em>began as a daily meditation practice of reading a poetic line from Eileen Tabios’ <em>Murder Death Resurrection</em> and then allowing the heart’s response to flow without censorship. The meditations offer us a glimpse of Leny’s life-long reflections on love history decolonization healing trauma finding belonging and purpose and building community.</p><p>"Taking another poet's lines as her starting points Leny creates mediations and meditations within which she tells her story and invites her readers to come in and dwell a while to contemplate what she has created: a retreat a cocoon a place in which to see oneself and to be seen from which to spin forward and inspire other poetic awakenings."</p><p><strong>—Myriam J.
