Physically grounded in the American South and Southwest, the poems
in ""Are We There Yet?"" chart the poet's psychic and spiritual
journey through the regions of youth and maturity, faith and
uncertainty, innocence and experience, and past and present,
reflecting the contrarieties of time and its incompleteness. These
lyrics depict an unfolding emotional dialectica - a struggle, where
moments and events are held up and analyzed for clues about how we
stand firm amid the velocity of circumstance and experience.From
""Contrary"" - She darkened where she went, and now her blood, too,
storms my veins, and I see how I've spent too many days like this,
fuming and blustering about too little: money, time or energy.
Nothing won't task our reservoir of complaint. Even the mildest day
invites reproach.
