Little Pink Plastic Babies is a bold and unflinching poetry collection that explores the raw edges of grief, love, passion, and heartbreak with sharp humor and an unfiltered lens. David Romanda delivers an unforgettable ride through the highs and lows of romance, relationships, desire, and longing, painting scenes that are at once absurd and deeply human.With a voice that’s both darkly comic and profoundly tender, Romanda’s poems capture the awkwardness of intimacy, the sting of loss, and the reckless beauty of wanting something-or someone-you can never quite have. From the quiet devastation of a breakup to the feverish thrill of newfound attraction, these poems strip love down to its bare bones, exposing the humor and tragedy woven into every human connection.Romanda’s signature style fuses the offbeat irreverence of Mad Magazine with the dry wit of Steven Wright, all while channeling the raw, streetwise energy of Charles Bukowski and the Beats. His work is unapologetically direct, cutting through pretension to reveal the messy, aching truths of the human heart. Whether he’s detailing the absurdity of modern romance or the gut-punch of a love gone sour, every piece in Little Pink Plastic Babies is charged with intensity and wit.Praise for Little Pink Plastic Babies:'David Romanda’s zany poems are firmly grounded in Mad Magazine and Steven Wright, with more than a dollop of Bukowski and the Beats. He’s a master at taking things from bad to worse and I’ll bet his readings are a standup comedy laugh fest.' -Richard Peabody, editor, Gargoyle MagazinePerfect for readers who appreciate poetry that doesn’t hold back, Little Pink Plastic Babies is a collection that speaks to anyone who has ever loved recklessly, lost tragically, or laughed in the face of it all. Romanda’s work reminds us that poetry can be as biting as it is beautiful-and that even in our worst moments, there’s always room for a little dark humor.

    Edward V Bonner
    The very title of Edward V. Bonner's first volume of poetry, One Kiss (Ingram, 2015), suggests some ways in which the poems inside balance the universal with the particular.
