Is the theme marriage in the poem 'Marrysong' by Dennis Scott?

'Marrysong' is about a man who is desperate to understand his wife: a stormy, tempramental woman who he compares to territory. The poem is an extended metaphor of this, explaining that the man explored her, and tried to 'map' her so that he could understand and predict her, but he fails to do so, and he keeps surprising her. He almost expresses a despairing and complaining attitude, but he seems more baffled by her. He also finds her a little alluring and intriguing in the way that her mood changes every day. The poem concludes with the man putting an end to trying to figure her out, and takes her for who she is without questioning it.
