Book excerpt: 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 in the language of praise.
