Although the subject matter and style of these poems are quite varied, the overall theme is that, while we are individual and isolated, we are more together than we realize, sharing common experiences. The four sections include poems about loss of identity; the significance of places; the universal appeal of poetry; civil rights,; African American contributions; a group of very original poems based on sacred music interpreted from the contemporary urban African American perspective; aging; friendship; and familial and romantic love.
