"The Poet Reflects on Her Solitary Fate"

She lives alone now.
Has abandoned the fathers,
the rooms of brothers
and many mothers.

They have left her
to her own device.
Her nightmares and pianos.
She owns a lead pipe.

The stray lovers
have gone home.
The house is cold.
There's nothing on t.v.
She must write poems.

—Sandra Cisneros

1. Reminds me of me

I like living alone sometimes, but other times I wish I had some company. Nobody comes to visit me for some reason. I have to go see them.
