"Raving Lunacy" is a 2013 e-book, available on Amazon.com, and the debut publication of independent author Blaine Munday. It's a poetry collection, but with a twist. It aims to deconstruct and reconstruct poetry, making the genre what it was meant to be, while trying to amuse the reader along the way. It consists of 46 poems divided between eight categories, including Munday's life, Self-Deprecation, Fantasy Literature and parodies of popular music. There are two sequels planned, the three forming "The Collection Trilogy", but Munday is currently focusing on the writing of his first novel, though there he is thinking of releasing a sequel or interquel of sorts to Raving Lunacy with a similar structure before finishing and publishing the novel.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Munday is an avid troper, and one of the poems, "An Ode to a Website", is about This Very Wiki.

Absurdism: Repeatedly, most notably the entirety of "Absurd Bizarre Surreal and Thoroughly Whacky", a free-verse poem consisting entirely of non-sequiturs, and also in "Tipperaries".

After the End

comment
After the End: Intended, yet not overtly stated, for all the poems in The Goodbye Section, the last group of poems in Raving Lunacy. Most noticeable in "Toward the Sky (Smoke and Ash)" which is actually about the Earth just having been destroyed and still burning and filling the atmosphere with toxic fumes.

Conspiracy Theorist: "Conspiracy" is a parody of inane conspiracy theories.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })

comment
Blatant Lies: In "Who Am I", Munday says he is, among other things, "the sunshine, the moonlight, the good times and the boogie" (an obvious reference to Michael Jackson) and "the reason why some believe the moon landing was a hoax" (a subtle lampooning of conspiracy theories).

Insane Troll Logic: The narrator of "Non-Falling Towel" posits that a towel he saw may have been made by aliens (from an alternate dimension, no less).
