These poems convey both the bliss and pain of our existence, never shying away from life's uncomfortable truths.'' Most recently, in a review of Gery's Have at You Now! (2014), a collection he calls ``multiple and wide-ranging,'' Daniel Wallace writes how ``Gery troubles his readers with doubts, failings, and deeply grounded despair'' but in verse that ``is in turn whimsical, comic, erotic, and nostalgic.''
