The poems in Through One Tear range across social and historical subjects, through the consequences of love, to spiritual integrity and quest. Some could be called magical realism. Others display a searing black humor. Many investigate the inner mysteries of the self head-on. The central poem, "Loss," interweaves a wide range of crystallized historical and personal moments into a powerful monument of love, loss, suffering, and wisdom.
