The poems in Dulce are at once confession and elegy that admit the speaker's attempt and possible failure to reconcile intimacy toward another and toward the self. The collection asks: what's the point in any of this? - meaning, what's the use of longing beyond pleasure; what's the use of looking for an origin if we already know the ending?
