Reaction of a poem
The poem “Lying in a Hommoock at William Duffy”s Farm in Pine Island, Minnesota” is a complete comparison of a man’s life with nature. James Wright uses a lot of astonishing details to make such a complicated contrast. In my opinion this man’s life is boring and a routine, like “the black trunk” and “the cowbells that follow one another”. The emptiness of the house that he describes in the poem is the same emptiness of his existence, which looks like a waste of time, a life that does not makes sense because other people control it for him. This gentleman’s life is not what he wants it to be and in the poem he becomes aware of it.
