註釋W. Joseph Lutz’s poetry has a great variety of styles and subject matter. One theme that is frequently found is that of boundaries and limitations. These are treated sometimes with laughter and sometimes with a great sense of loss and sorrow. It is, of course, a facet of the human condition that everyone can understand. The stories vary greatly, from a lapsed academic searching for the holy grail to a high school baseball pitcher who gets injured and has to give up his dream of a sports career to a small-town alcoholic who can only find solace from the stifling confines of his too organized life by indulging in a late night tipple. There is optimism and joy as well. His answer to the long wait for help is expressed in two words—“it comes.” It will come. It always does come, not always in the way we expect, but undeniably “it comes.”
