Poetry. UNDERSTORIES is an exploration of things visible mostly to the inner eye and memory, things below the surface. "A Perfect Afternoon" follows an unfulfilled romance through significant moments and years to elegy for what never was. The second section, "Functional Families," considers the theme of family, especially mothers, and moves through varying visions of family to a sort of resolution though the poet's mothering of her own son. The third section, "Going the Distance for Poetry," focuses on poetry and art, some of the connections that make the poetic quest possible, literary, artistic and natural. The final section looks at New York, Toronto, Florence, ancient Rome, Mayan Mexico through the lens of history and memory, alternating sorrow for loss with belief in the power of poetry to preserve. One of the themes of UNDERSTORIES is "where does the story end?" and the book takes the long view, writing beyond the apparent ending. This is a book where ghosts walk.
