Poems Week 2
Tues. Talks about woman hanging from window, thoughts of suicide / hopelessness
Woman can't decide if she wants to end her own life "she knows she is hanging by her own fingers, her
own skin, her own thread of indecision"
The dad probably has a different memory of why he was drunk at the time, probably from being at a worser point in life, similar to the woman who is hanging threatening to end her life.

Wed. House focused, most of the poem personifies house to human
Relates back to human nature/ human body? House = a person's body, & all of the things that humans feel and deal with.. pride and bone, afraid to be alone, guilt

"In me she has drowned a young girl, and in me an old woman
Rises toward her day after day"
