All we need is excess of Extreme love That alone ends extreme Violence, the warming is not From diesel smoke but from Dead who speak. The voice Of Tamils away from south sea Punished for their tongue. The voice of pandits from North snow punished for their Gods and the voices Of burnt bashas of western Dry lands punished for their Religion and the cries of Brothers from eastern coast Punished for their service. The dead have thrown above a warmth That the whole sea cannot Cool, it is a fire that ends all Life and showers new life All through universe A rain after a hot sun …..

About the Book
The theme is a running vein all through the thirty-two poems, advocating international integration that breaks nationalism and calls it unwanted feeling for humanity. Globalization has not done away with national politics backed by power centers, which in turn is backed by money muscle. Vested interest lobbies use globalization only for economic supremacy of certain power groups, whereas in reality, there is economic cannibalism. This has been highlighted in the poems. Harsh reality is mirrored through poems, a medium soft in form but strong in its attack on social injustice.
About the Author
The author/poet is a fifty-nine-year-old dropout from so-called radical movement who faced reverse discrimination for the fault of his birth in a redundant upper hierarchy. The crushed man ventilates his pain with love for humanity and wants national barriers broken.
