Solidarity With The Flesh Eating Mosaic And Other Poems

Following up on THE RETURN OF THE MAGNIFICENT NINNY AND OTHER POEMS, Raj Dronamraju returns with his second poetry book, SOLIDARITY WITH THE FLESH EATING MOSAIC & OTHER POEMS – with 60 new works that demonstrate a broadening and deepening of perspective. More than thinking out loud, here we find dignity at odds with circumstance—where too many live a “wax fruit life,” Raj’s poetry opens un-romanticized “raw reality” that can’t be explained “away with pie charts” even for the “window shopper” in the “marketplace of ideas” or those who would “practice self-doubt in a daily workout routine.” Dronamraju time and again coins original turns of phrase, as he thinks through the inner mind out into a world of intimate and estranged relationships, personal soul searching and questioned social consumerism—a scarred life in an imperfect world that is not monumentalized, but rather examined with a profound passion.
