"Those who beat the drumbeat of war must dance to the rhythm of death." The book is a collection of poems which touch all aspects of the human society. Specifically, it is a poetic response to the parlous conditions of our society, a subtle rebuttal of the shifting norms in the country. The poems are ingeniously woven in beautiful figurative language. A keen reader of the poems would recognize the elevated quality of the images through the brilliant use of figurative language. In other words, there is a subtle "injection of solution oriented images in the poems even in the midst of horrific religious, political, economic, and social tensions." The poet takes on the traditional role of a town crier, denouncing the shifting norms in the society, with a view to effecting a positive change. According to P.B Shirley, the poet is a "legislator" and a "prophet". He dictates for the society and foresees what is to come. This is exactly what the poet has done here. Also, the poems border on the themes of love, friendship, honesty, and salvation.
