Love Revolution presents a collection of poems by Robert Tinajero. Divided into five sections (three major and two smaller), Tinajeros verses explore a wide range of topics, situations, and emotions, particularly focusing on various types of love.

Some excerpts from poems:

this is my apology poem
God
im sorry for having written so many poems
and so few praising you

-----

the love-armies assembled
but i did not enlist

-----

im tired of soft poems today
i want my words to
jump up and stab a racist cop
put on gloves
sweat and bruise and bleed
help a migrant pick a thorny crop

-----

so what kind of bullets are you putting in your gun
america?

-----

if i'm hanging around
the wrong ol' town
i'm a spic
can i be american?

-----

i'm trying to put into words
the poetry that drips from your body

-----

may God bless me
with my own
nancy Reagan

-----

maybe everywhere
is in the middle of nowhere

maybe its all just physics

-----

what street
will be the last one
my casket rolls through

-----

pero la realidad es
el amor no es nicamente la belleza
los erticos fuegos en los cielos estrellados de Neruda

-----

qu saba yo
de la viscosidad del amor?
