Man (Carnegie Mellon Poetry (Paperback))

Man is premised on the fact that most individuals in our culture have, over the last two generations especially, drifted beyond rebellion or rejection of spiritual matters into a purely worldly menu of causes to explain what occurs to them. Nonetheless, the spiritual—in a universal sense although here it is referenced by the Judeo-Christian tradition—retains, strangely, its capacity to condition and inform our sense of the man-character’s life.
