How amazing is it to get a 100-page response to one of your
books!?!
Yes. Massively amazing.
Leny M. Strobel wrote one-page responses to lines from the MDR
Poetry Generator database—see HERE more information about MDR—for a few months
and doesn’t disappoint: she goes as varied as MDR does!
And now some excerpts from Leny’s “Journaling with MDR Poetry”
is up at #allpinayeverything curated by Barbara Jane Reyes. Thanks to Leny and
Barbara!
Here’s an example of how Leny engaged: to my MDR line
841 I forgot darkness was the key, not the
lock.
Leny begins by recalling the “childhood trauma of sexual abuse”
and goes from the personal to the political to conclude
The fear of Dark as Other … is also named
Woman
Filipina
Brown Monkey
Sevant of Globalization
Prostitute
Comfort Woman
Imeldific
What power, what energy, lies within Leny. I’m glad she is now
an Elder. Salamat, Leny.
Four excerpts of Leny's engagement are available HERE. YOU ARE INVITED TO READ. And perhaps you want to use MDR, too, to spark off new writings ... which you can do through the book MURDER DEATH RESURRECTION. Have fun! Have power!
